That's the problem, I love Leo. But wouldn't want just Leo, but not a huge fan of Leonardo.
When Leo was brought up he instantly got excited about "Leonidas!" And thinks it's "bad ass".

Oh, and Leonidas & Elias. Lol, no.
I told him Leonidas sounds like a fungus, like something you could get on your feet.

But that's why Leonidas is even worse because they rhyme! Or is that what you meant? Haha

We know a Leonardo and I think it's a kickass name. He insists on Leonardo, not Leo, too.
Oh, and there are a lot of Greeks in our city and Leonidas is a very common surname.

H did mention the movie 300, lol.
He also brought up how I'm Greek in his attempt to justify the name.

Leo with your sibset sounds good! Leonard or Leopold aren't bad.

My husband's BFF named his new son that two days ago, and I love it. His wife is half Italian half Lebanese raised in France, and he's half Puerto Rican, so they wanted a name that worked in all five of their languages.
The kid will go by Leo.

I think it's also a major Belgian chocolate company.
I don't hate it but agree that there are better paths to Leo.

I can almost hear the doctor, "I'm sorry, but it seems you have a case of Leonidas. I'm afraid this requires immediate treatment."
I'm with you. I do like Leo, but not from Leonidas.

I like Leonardo more than Leopold...
I don't know though about Eli & Leo, since I call Elias Eli often.
It will most likely be Ezra still, but we keep looking for another option.
Hopefully I feel 100% after the baby is born! Or maybe it'll be a girl and all this boy talk would have been for nothing lol

"Eli and Leo" is kind of a tongue twister.
And Elias has a hard time with L's, he calls himself E-I. Lol
