[Opinions] Leonidas
I've been infatuated with the name Leonidas for a while (One of the more popular Israeli singer-songwriters, Yehudah Leon Poliker, was born to Greek-Jewish parents as Leonidas Polikaris). I've noticed that in the popularity charts, it's been given a few hundred American babies since '08 (undoubtedly due to the film 300). In the world of Lion-based names I'd rank it above Leonard but below Leon.

Love it, but it’s a bit much for actual use. I love the nn Nye.
I'm glad that it exists, but I don't want it too near me.
I think it's a little too much prefer Leo or Leon
It's certainly handsome! It's a bit too macho for my liking—I prefer Leonard and Leonato.
