Ive come accross four newborns recently. And every other boy is Leo. I was just wondering as its quite old school why all of a sudden its really popular.

Clara and Leo are nice names. I haven’t noticed them being specifically popular recently, there was a Leo when I was at school and I’ve met one small Leo through work & one Clara.

Sometimes you can randomly have a clump of kids named a similar thing - I was astounded when I once worked at a preschool with two Mileys when I’d never even met one before!

It was in Dr who? I dunno it reminds me of a cow in one of my kids books though
