Love it. I've seen people say it's popular but I only know 3. Youngest 2 the eldest 23.

Definitely a like

LOVE Leo, it's on my list for a future DS, I like it as a nn for Leonardo Leonard. However I think Leo holds its own without being a nn. It's not too popular really either, although it feels like it should be uber popular!

I think Leo is fine.

My neighbor's nephew was named 'Leonidas' (nobody in the family is anything close to Greek) and her two sons spent the afternoon stalking through the house, periodically striking poses and roaring 'This is Spartaaaaa!' and 'Leonidasssss'. So maybe don't use that until '300' is long forgotten.

LOVE this name! Really wanted a boy so I could use it but we're having another girl. It is very popular at the moment but that doesn't put me off because I like the name so much!
