I’m reading a novel now called Life on Loan by Ashley Farley. One of the main characters is named Lena. That’s one of the reasons I took the book from the library. The first chapter is titled Lena and the first sentence starts with Lena as well. I am enjoying the book so far. Have you ever decided to read a book because one of the characters has the same name as you?

I am sure there are books with your first name for a character. You just haven't come across it yet.

No. Linda is quite a common name.

Linda is a nice name. Do you know any famous people that have the same name as you?

Yeah, I will be interested to read a book if one of the main characters has the same name as mine.

That's actually my childhood best friend's name. Lina actually. I had a cat. Called him Louna. Live the sound of it.

I was born in Belarus. My birth name is actually Elena but I've always been called Lena. Moving to the US, my official name was translated to Yelena. Not sure why. That's what I go by, though online or friends and family call me Lena.

I don’t believe I’ve seen a book that has a character with my name.
