  • Nayoung
  • *Roa
  • Yuha
  • Eunwoo
  • *Rena
  • Kyulkyung
  • *Yehana
  • Sungyeon
  • Xiyeon
  • *Kyla

Greek Meaning:

The name Rena is a Greek baby name. In Greek the meaning of the name Rena is:Peaceful.

American Meaning:

The name Rena is an American baby name. In American the meaning of the name Rena is: Peaceful.

 

 

If they pronounced it that way, sure, but they don't.  So it's not.

 

The Greek Rena which you referenced, Ρένα, is pronounced Réna

The American baby name for Rena is pronounced REE-nah

 

Meanwhile Rena already has hangul fof her name written as 레나 and pronounced as Lena

they just switched the front of the Romanized version to distinguish it, just like they did with Siyeon into Xiyeon.

 

Yehana and Roa are hardly western names, I think you'll be hard pressed to find any women in the west bearing those names.

 

So no, 1 out of 10  does not qualify as 'many,' and seeing as that Kyla is an American and that's her name, what are you even on about?
