Wdyt of the name Helen, and are there any good nicknames for it?

My boyfriend says that he likes it but that it sounds too pretentious to him--something I don't get... but maybe that's because I grew up with an Aunt Helen. Helena, on the other hand, sounds pretentious to me, but I like the nickname Lena.

I love the name Helen. It screams 1940s and 1930s glamor to me.
