I'd be tempted to go with a 'Y' sound at the front - Yelena, possibly. I suppose the correct pronunciation depends on where shes from.

I'd go with that. But it could be a phlegmy sounding pronunciation, as if there were a H before the J.

I'll go with the "Y" as well" Yell-lay-na.

But then you can ask her: "Did I say that right?".

Whether you be right or wrong it could lead onto to "Oh great/sorry, it's an interesting name, where does it come from?"............... Henceforth starting the conversation could well culminate into you getting into her knickers.

GO ON DMR, GET IN THERE.
