How many Leos do you know?

Love Leo but slightly put off by the fact it’s seemingly very popular (although I don’t know any). How many (child) Leos do you know?

The others on our shortlist are Jonah, Joah and Gabriel. Which is your favourite from the four? Thanks.

I love Gabriel and interested to know what pp meant by it’s associated with a particular country as I don’t know which!

I’ve got one. I expected to bump into more of them, but never met another?!

emmathedilemma · 30/03/2020 18:46

One (under the age of 10), don’t know any of the other names but I prefer Leo.

I know one gorgeous 7 year old Leo and I really love the name

I0NA · 30/03/2020 18:18

I know one Leo who is 14. It’s a great name.

feellikeanalien · 30/03/2020 18:17

I like Leo the best out of all your choices OP. The only Leo I know is in his forties.

Not keen on Jonah. Makes me think of the bible story of Jonah being swallowed by the whale.Smile

I know two who are both about 3 months old within a fairly small area

Baboutheocelot · 30/03/2020 18:16

mamablondie · 30/03/2020 18:09

I know of two 2-3 year olds, and it’s a name I do hear quite a bit when out (soft play, groups etc) but it’s lovely.

Allthebears · 30/03/2020 12:31

My cat is called Leo!

Whatsyourflava · 30/03/2020 11:27

Love Leo and Gabriel they’re definitely my favourites from your list- great choices

I don’t actually know anyone with either name. Am a regular at lots of baby groups too

People - Lots

Herpesfreesince03 · 30/03/2020 00:07

I know lots of Leo’s, not keen. I don’t like joah. I love Gabriel but to me it depends on the Nationality of the child whether it suits (and no I’m not racist or anything, to me though the name is associated with one country). I love Jonah

123Dancewithme · 30/03/2020 00:03

I like Joah

CuppaZa · 30/03/2020 00:00

One. He’s mine

Juanmorebeer · 30/03/2020 00:00
  1. One is 8. One is 11 months.
