Where I'm not a fan of Tamar, I think it flows well. I like Helena.

It wouldn't be my typical "style" that I veer towards (both first and middle name)... but oddly enough, I kinda this it's pretty!! I like the way you want to pronounce Helena, although I think a lot of people would mispronounce it (and say Huh-lee-nuh).. I think the whole name flows well together.

It isn't really my style, but Hubby and I have thought about it to honor his grandmother who has passed away, her name was Helen, which I would never use, but Helena has a nice modern twist. Maybe it will wear on me after all!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the name, but it would have too many pronunciation issues for me. I've heard it being said ha-lay-na, ha-lena and helen-a.

Helena is pretty, but not a name I'd use (not my style). I'm not a fan of the middle name and don't think it goes very well with Helena.
