[Opinions] Re: What a lovely list!

Rudolf -while I'm not a fan of the name, it is great to see a more unusual choice now and then in BAs. The only Rudolfs I've heard of were in their 60s or older so this is a nice change.
Dorian- I know what you mens, I get the Wilde vibe of it too, but it's not a book that the general public in Croatia is that familiar so they just choose it for the sound and because it's an international name that has the same spelling and pr. in Croatian as in English/German.
Leonardo/Leonarda (btw, can't believe that Leonarda is not in the database)- I don't think it has anything ot do with the DaVinci Code, It's more a mix of the 'L' names craze/wanting a longer name than Leo/mothers liking Leonardo di Caprio,lol. And one it became popular it got a life of it's own...
