Leonie Vera is stunning. So is Vera Leonie. Love the sound and multiple meanings of Vera. Getting ever more popular, though!

Vera Leonie is very cute! The combo is great :) Hmmm I don't care too much for Vera because of the image I get from it. I would love to see it used so that image would fade because the name is nice. I always imagine an overweight, very loud old Russian lady with a beard who has lots of cats and yells at everyone. But I like it on someone elses child and I think if I met a little Vera I could quickly grow to like it. I like its meaning and together with Leonie is has a certain charm to it that I like even though I don't care for Leonie too much. A Vera Leonie is a cute little girl, together with Leonie Vera's old image disappears a bit. Overall it is a lovely combo!

That's a nice combo. I like Vera alright, except that I'm never sure which way to pronounce it. I tend to say VEER-a but I like VEHR-a too.

I love the name Vera. I often forget how much I like it. I don't like Leonie much though.

I think it's a sweet name, has a cute Southern thing going on, but I struggle with pronunciation. I went my whole life assuming this name was pronounced VER-a, like very but an -a. Come to find out it's usually VEER-a. Does not really compute.

I like Vera - the length, simplicity, soft sounds, meaning, old-lady vibe, everything! Vera Leonie is great.

I love both Vera and Leonie. Vera Leonie really reminds me of Sierra Leone. I prefer Leonie Vera.

My grandmothers name is Vera Harriet. When I was little I didn't like the name at all. But now I LOVE it, and I want my future daughter to be named Vera. I think it is classic and sweet.

It seems to be grandmother vintage all right. Not the worst name, but not nearly as nice as Leonie.If not for Leonie, I'd suggest Verity as an alternative, but they don't sound good together at all.

I'm generally a fan of girls' names that start with a V, but Vera is one that I've never been able to warm up to. It sounds both cold and dowdy to me. I love Verity and Verena and would prefer to see those rather than Vera.A friend of mine, when she was expecting her first child, said she was going to name it Vera if it were a girl. It wasn't, and when she did have a girl several years later, she opted for Jade instead.

Hi !!!I like Vera very much!!!
It means "true" in Italian but is actually a very cute, original name made in Russia which means "faith".
Both links make it beautiful to me.Vera Léonie is really pretty!
It flows well and they complete each others.
