Leo Baby Names

Names for Leo babies have lots of appealing inspirations: lions, gold, and the sun, to name the three main Leo symbols.

Leo is the sign of the lion in the zodiac, and there are plenty of leonine baby names to consider, even Leo itself. Names for a Leo baby could also include those inspired by the color gold, which is both the element and the color associated with Leos.
