I really like this name but can't think of any middle names that go well with it....any suggestions? I would pronounce it El-LAY-ni

I like it - it was in a book I read recently - a Greek girl who dies in a bus crash in Peru!

el-eh-nee is the Welsh way of saying it.

The greek in me says it's pronounced El- len- ee. It's my godmothers name although we call her Helen.

I just assumed it was pronounced the way I wrote first, but I like El-len-ee a lot too

I love it as El-en-ee. El-ay-nee is a bit more of an unusual pronounciation though.

legallyblond · 08/01/2010 16:03

This is nice... maybe Rose as a middle name?

I also LOVE the Greek name Irini (pronounced ih-REE-ni) - the name of one of my best (Greek) friends.
