But Elaine is actually a very common name. Not necessarily in English. But if you look at the tennis tour, Elena is *the* most common name among the Russian and Eastern European players (and because there are so many of them, overall, too).

Perhaps I shouldn't have been more specific! The actual name 'Elaine' isn't a common name in North America. There are similar names such as: Ellen, Helen, and Eileen, however.

The names: Elena and Eliana are close to the name 'Elaine', but are not exact and are more widely used outside of North America as you stated.
