Eleanor, Elena or Ellena? (Spelling question)

Personally I would pronounce them as
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]- [name_f]Ella[/name_f] nor
[name_f]Elena[/name_f]- [name_f]Elle[/name_f] ay na
[name_f]Ellena[/name_f]- [name_f]Ellen[/name_f] uh
So I am [name_f]British[/name_f] and have a relatively strong [name_f]British[/name_f] accent. I live in [name_u]South[/name_u] [name_f]Africa[/name_f] and people always can tell I am [name_f]British[/name_f] by my accent, [name_f]Ellena[/name_f] is my favourite but I’m biased cause I really love the name. But pick which makes your heart happy. I am [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f] often mispronounced for [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] or [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f]. But now I am just [name_f]Millie[/name_f] [name_f]Olive[/name_f] but so many names are said wrong it is rather easy to correct.
