What are your honest opinions on Leo? Is it nicer than Isaac?

It was my number one choice but OH wasn't as into it as I was :(

I love Isaac too though. That was probably my number 3 or 4 choice.

I always think of Leo Sayer when I hear the name Leo.

I also know of one who is a complete nightmare. He alone puts me off the name.

Lovely but very popular where I am. I have met lots of baby Leos at baby groups recently, depends if you mind that I suppose. Love Isaac also.

Love the name Leo, I know two under 4. Both lovely, cheeky boys!

Also like Isaac. Less popular here I think.

Both good choices :-)

I have a Leo (he's 14 months) and people always comment on his name (in a positive way!) We are expats and his name works well because it's easy to spell and pronounce.

Leo is my father's middle name but these days it reminds me of Tony Blair's youngest. I still like it bit prefer Isaac.

It's too popular IMO - Leo's are sprouting up everywhere.

It's lovely. I'm not very keen on Isaac, not a huge fan of obviously biblical names.
