I would probably like it, if it wasn't for the fact that "leda" means either "boredom" or "to lead" in Swedish.

I like it but I pronounce it LAY-də.

Leda Cynthia
Leda Deirdre
Leda Genevieve
Leda Andromeda
Leda Evadne
Leda Selene
Leda Hermione
Leda Artemis
Leda Irene
Leda Helena
Leda Rheia
Leda Pandora
Leda Acantha
Leda Helene
Leda Daphne
Leda Phyllis
Leda Antigone

When I say it aloud it reminds me of a New Yorker or someone from Boston saying the word "leader" lol

I like it. When I first heard it I thought it was too swan-rapey but after seeing it IRL I think it works fine.

---

Leda Rose, Leda Vivian, Leda Claire (that one sounds good to me too :P), Leda Andromeda

I love Leda. I never use it though. It's easy to look over but once you pay it attention, it shines.

I brought up that name here when I was pregnant, because it has a sound I like ... and most of the replies said that Leda and the Swan makes it unusable. I sort of agree with that now.

I like it well enough, I favor the slightly softer Lena, but I admire the simplicity and the clean look of it.

Leda Temperance is lovely and Leda Rosalind is near to perfect.

Some more ideas:
Leda Artemis
Leda Ealasaid
Leda Jessamine
Leda Marcellette
Leda Peronel

I love it. Leda Rosalind is absolutely perfect. Other ideas:
Leda Marigold
Leda Josephine
Leda Susannah

I agree, it's a lovely name. Similar to the classics Lea and Lena but less common, which is a plus :) I pronounce it in a different way, though: LE-dah (it's closer to the original Greek pronunciation I guess)
