~So somehow I found myself poking around Netscape's babynamer (no, I am NOT pregnant!!) pages and I discovered this:
 
 LEONARD, LEONARDO. Another lion-related name, Leonard comes from the German meaning lionhearted, and has been out of fashion for several decades, even though one of several St. Leonards is the patron saint of childbirth. It is perhaps more famous for those who dropped the name when they entered show business than for those who kept it: Former Leonards include Roy Rogers, Tony Randall, and Buddy Hackett. Much more au courant these days is Leonardo, partly because of the versatile young actor Leonardo di Caprio, and partly, we're afraid, because Leonardo is one of the Renaissance artist-inspired names of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
 
 
                                 ~GW...what are they "afraid" of?
