What do you think of the name Leon?

We recently found out that dc1 will be a boy and have pretty much decided on Leon as a name. I think it's unusual without being strange or faddy and he won't have a life time of having to spell it for people. Dh is particularly keen on this as a name. He'll probably end up being shortened to Lee a lot anyway.

He'll have 2 middle names, both after people important to me and Dh who have passed away.

Love it- would use it myself. Trotsky and Jean Reno are my associations.

You are right- it's distinctive without being faddy.

I do actually like it but my initial thought was Seat.
