Ell-Ay-Na is the only way I've ever heard it pronounced.

I would automatically say uh-LAY-nah, though I do know it can be pronounced a few different ways.

Eh-LAY-na

I did have a distant relative that pronounced it ELLEN-ah, but I think that it should be spelled Ellena, if it's going to be pronounced that way...

I would pronounce it like Elaina, not like any of the ways you spelled....
sorry-- but hope it helps.
