The jewish name Yehuda may be a clue. The emblem of Yehuda tribe was a lion. Yehuda is often associated with a lion or lion's whelp (GUR ARYE YEHUDA). This comes from Jacob's blessing to Yehuda (Genesis 49:9)

This may suggest that the "lieb" may actually be related to "lion" rather than "friendly/beloved".
