I really like the sound of Leopold, it just brings to mind such elegance and bravery attached to an English or German nobleman. I first started liking it when I was studying Queen Victoria, her uncle was King Leopold of Belgium and she named her youngest son after him. The movie 'Kate & Leopold' is one of my favorites and it's based very loosely on the life of Victoria's son. So I guess you could say that when I hear the name Leopold I really think of Hugh Jackman! :)

I really like the nn Leo and I think that it can be a name on it's own but works great with Leopold. I dislike Leonard, Leonardo is a bit better because of it's old man sound and I associate it with a certain weird uncle of mine. I really like Leon though and Leo would make a nice nn for that too.
