Love this name so much, it's beautiful.
I'm named Leni and I've lived in Germany for 2 years, not a single problem with it. It's easy to understand, no one thinks of Leni Riefenstahl but of Heidi Klum's daughter, and now it's becoming very popular on the top 20 of girl names... So stop being exaggerated on its previous use.
I would never consider naming a child this. While I think Leni is a very pretty name, I can't get over the association with Leni Riefenstahl. I once asked on a German baby names website whether anyone else was worried by this particularly dubious namesake, the response was simply that it is still perfectly acceptible practice to name a child 'Adolf'. So why not Leni also?! On baby-vornamen.de Leni Riefenstahl is listed simply as "actress".
I love this name as a nickname for Lennon.
I absolutely love this name, I think it is adorable and if I ever have a child, I will name it this regardless of the sex.
