How does one pronounce these names...

Helena (ha-lay-na OR Hel-la-na)

Elena (ah-lay-na OR El-la-na)

Also, what do you think of the names? The first is a family name of my friend.

My mom's middle name is Elena and she has always pronounced it more like the ah-lay-na.

Elena is my top favorite for a girl's name as I expecting.
I was just looking through the posts and I had to comment as I don't see that name as much.

I always liked it and she was named after my grandma's little sister who was killed in War War 2.
