There is an opinion that the name Elena correlates with the concepts of “sunbeam” or “sunlight”, and the name Elena itself is derived name on behalf of Helios, the sun god in ancient greek mythology. According to the second version, the name Elena is related to how the Greeks called themselves - Hellenes. Hence the variations in the pronunciation of the name Elena in different countries. The name Elena means "Greek". The name Helen is most often associated with the ancient Greek heroine Helen of Troy (Sparta), because of whom the fire broke out Trojan War described in Homer's epic.

In the Christian tradition, Saint Helen of Constantinople, mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, is especially revered. Great ruler Kievan Rus Princess Olga was baptized under the name Elena (in 955). Since then, the name Elena has become widely used in Rus', both in its original form and in folk versions - Olena, Olena, Alena, Yalena, Ilena, Elenia.

For example, Elena (Olena) was the name of the first wife of Ivan Kalita, and Elena Glinskaya was the ruler of the Grand Duchy of Moscow under her young son Ivan IV. And everyone knows the heroines of Russian fairy tales, Elena the Beautiful and Elena the Wise.

From early childhood he loves fairy tales. She is a little withdrawn, never completely merges with the children’s group, always a little aloof, in her own inner world. She is gullible, but when faced with deception, especially one built on her gullibility, she will certainly try to punish the person who deceived her, showing extraordinary ingenuity. Elena is kind, but her kindness in childhood is rarely active. So, she can bring a dirty street kitten into the house, give it milk to drink, cry over its bitter fate, but will not show firmness when the parents turn the “new resident” out onto the street at night that same evening. He is interested in a little bit of everything. And she tries to knit, and sew, and embroider - she is attracted to everything beautiful. Lessons are taught from time to time. He studies well, even excellently in some subjects, thanks mainly to his good memory and the teacher he likes.

Elena most often looks like her father. In any case, she inherits his character exactly. The name Elena generously adds emotionality and categoricalness to it. Emotions generally play a big role in Elena’s life. In her youth she gives the impression of being withdrawn and shy, but upon closer acquaintance it becomes clear that she is a cheerful person, a great dreamer and optimist.

A name is an identity
This is a state of mind.
Each is beautiful in its own way,
Everyone is damn good together!

For example, let's talk about Elena:
So smart, beautiful and slim.
In fairy tales, of course, the queen
In life - impeccable and sweet.

May you be lucky, Lenochka, Elena,
And flowers bloom at your feet.
Be loved, queens!
Bright, clean, easy roads to you!

**************

You are amazing
And you leave a mark on my heart,
And you, beautiful Elena,
It could easily outshine the moonlight!

And your beauty is sung,
I want you to always stay
As tender as summer
I didn’t get upset over trifles!

*************

Lena is wise, very beautiful!
We remember this from childhood for a long time!
In many fairy tales, this is what they say,
No one can argue with this anymore!

You are even better in life than in a fairy tale!
We all admire only you!
Give us all a hint soon,
How can you be like this?!

************************

Since Troy was decorated
Beautiful Elena,
Happened in all Helena
Almost invisible change.
Still we deservedly Elena
We call you beautiful, even unearthly,
And if you chose Lena as your wife,
You'll be happy with her alone.

************************

Elena symbol of love
Coming from Troy itself,
Full of charm
Elastic figure and dark eyes.

And after many, many years
Hardly anything has changed.
Elena - there is no doubt about it -
Queen in the world, queen to everyone.

So let your wishes
Let them be fulfilled once a day,
And your instructions
So that they are never discussed.

And for the prince to steal you away
Took me to the sky-high distances.
Where happiness is at rest,
Where miracles are only between you.
