After Milena Jesenska (sp), Kafka's confident and generally amazing woman. I love it but:

Is it too pretentious given that we are not in any way Czech?

Will everyone call her Milly (which sounds truly ridiculous with our surname)?

I thought malaena as well.

Malaena is poo with blood in, like a bleeding stomach ulcer can cause. I would avoid.

How about Miranda, Marina, Melissa?

I have never heard of Malaena. I have heard of Mirenas (is that what they're called) because I had one, but hoped that people wouldn't think of that! I was thinking Lena for a NN.

Out loud, it's a little too close to malaena for me to use it.

Not pretentious exactly, but my first thought was 'Isn't this in the wrong topic because I thought Milena was a contraceptive coil.'

Sorry.

It's a lovely name. Could have Lena as nickname?
