  1. Husband is a history buff so Leonidas is named after the spartan king. I think its cool that it means lion king-and thought for sure I’d only call him Leo, but his full name is growing on me! People often comment that it’s a strong name (especially with Cassius as a Middle name).

  2. Leonidas represents a bold, lion-like bravery. It was unique with a strong meaning.

  3. At first my furnace said Leonidas jokingly, and in a few months time, the name grew on me. But we had also wanted to incorporate one of our zodiac signs into our kid’s names. I am an aries. My fiance is a leo. And let me tell you, it is a lot easier to incorporate Leo into a name than it is aries. (Leo, Leon, Leoni, Leonidas, Leonora).

  4. I knew I wanted something unique, strong, meaningful, and from Greek origin. Leonidas is all of those. When I heard it at first, it didn’t sound like something I’d name my first son. But with more time to think about it, I realized it was the one. In one of my baby nick names list, I wanted to call him “little Leo.” And this fits perfectly.

  5. Leonidas was inspired by the movie 300. My husband wanted our son to have a very powerful name, so this what we chose.
