Hi, Francisco!
Perhaps a cross of Juliana with Hellena?

Hi, João :))

And the derivation of (Ligurian, middle ages) Eliano/Eliana from Helléne ?

Hellens' eponym is Helle:n. Would be it linked to Helle: (cf. Hellespontos) ?
Sedla:n- < *Sedla:-
Hellas (-ad-) < *Sedla(:)-d-
Maybe Helle:n < *Sedla-wen- ?

Maybe Hellas meant *SedlaH "the settlement", or "the colony", or something like that...

This is probably basically correct, though I'd say it was a
derivation from noun *sed(t)lo+ 'seat' >> verb *sedlax+ 'settle' >>
noun *sedlaxno+s 'settler' which was put into the C-stems later.
