... Leonard, Leander, Leonardo ...

And if you're happy to disclose, whereabouts do you live? I think it's quite common in London but less so elsewhere. But happy to be proved wrong!

I'm London Surrey border, it's a pretty standard name round here (perhaps I've met all of them though, as previous posts have a different experience!)

I know a three year old Leo but I think his full name it's actually Liam. My grandad's name was Leo, just Leo not short for anything.
