Origin: Greek

Meaning: Lion man, lion-like

Leanda is a pleasing feminine name sure to invigorate baby with an admirable fearlessness. A variant of the mythological Leander, Leanda takes its stride from the Greek word Leandros, translated as "lion man," though Leanda may enjoy a renewed meaning of "lion-like." Emboldened by a wealth of majestic traits—not least of all courage, strength, and valor—there is little doubt baby will have plenty of resolve for even the most intimidating trials.
