Leodis

One-of-a-kind yet part of the popular crowd, Leodis is a totally unique choice that fits in with the trending Leo- names of today. Keke Palmer chose it for her son Leodis Andrellton, writing, "Born during Black History Month, with a name to match!"

Leodis has never been a common name — at its peak, Leodis was given to just 15 baby boys in 1935 and 1950 — but is almost exclusively used by African Americans. The most notable modern bearer is football player Leodis McKelvin. Leotis, a related name, was famously borne by boxer Leotis Martin — the first-ever North American Boxing Federation heavyweight champion.

Leodis has Celtic roots from the place name Lādenses — the original name for Leeds, the now British city in Yorkshire. Leodis was likely the Anglo-Saxon or Celtic predecessor to Leeds.

Lucky

Leodis lucky number is 1.

1 symbolizes a pioneering spirit, independent nature, and innate leadership capabilities. On a bad day, 1 can be a bit bossy or boastful, hiding any insecurities behind over-developed self-importance. 1 must remember that although it is first, it can very quickly become the loneliest number. Even the most autonomous 1s need the support of their friends, family, and lovers.
