Leola

Alright... I didn't know there was a Feminine version of my own name, Leo! And... Now I think it looks dated. It looks nice but it's old-fashioned.

This name is pretty. I can see why most people in the comments like it.

Honestly, I was unaware of the existence of this name until now! From what I see, it was a name that was quite popular in the early 1900s, but for some inexplicable reason has been forgotten. A real shame, if I have to be honest.

Leola is a lovely name, at least from my point of view. Although it may have an aggressive meaning, as for "lion", the name is really feminine and striking. Love it. Why haven't I found out before? And why don't people use it more? A waste. Then I see more "modern" names with disastrous grammar being more popular than then super nice traditional names that people seem to have forgotten, like Ethel, Henrietta, Apolline, Lavinia...

I think Leola is lovely and very underused these days. It was my great grandma's name. She was born in 1912, and she said that when she was young, she knew lots of other Leolas, so apparently it used to be quite common. I can't imagine why it fell out of fashion. I say it's due for a comeback. If you're thinking of naming your daughter Leola, please do! :)

Leola is my middle name! It’s after my great grandma. It means “lion” which is a coincidence because my zodiac sign is Leo, which is also represented as the lion.
