Leo name meaning - character and destiny. Leo - the meaning of the name What does the name lion mean for a boy

The male name Lev is a Russified version of the Greek name Leont or the Latin name Leo (in both cases it means "lion"). It has been known in our country for a long time, but it has not been very popular. At present, this name has a moderate distribution in Russia, but young parents are of little interest.

Characteristics of the name Leo

Energetically, the name Leo symbolizes calm strength, power. It endows its owner with an open, honest, patient and courageous disposition, life wisdom, and a willingness to help. Such balanced self-confidence is manifested in the character of Leo from an early age. He gives the impression of being phlegmatic, he studies well, he can easily put up with failure, but you can’t call him an initiativeless mattress either, because he can show great perseverance in achieving his goal, in addition, he is brave and, without hesitation, rush into a fight to protect weak. Adult Leo is a good organizer and leader. You can rely on him in any business, because he is very honest and kind to all people. For him, there is nothing more sacred than to fulfill a promise given to someone, not to fail. However, in life, Leo appreciates regularity, familiarity, does not like sharp turns of fate and surprises, does not strive up the career ladder, but only wants to live and work in peace. The owner of this name has many friends: he is open, generous, friendly, flexible, tolerant of people's shortcomings.

Compatibility with zodiac signs

The name Leo is most suitable for a boy born under the zodiac sign of Taurus or the same Leo. The intellectually developed, peace-loving Taurus (April 20-May 20) is in many ways similar to Leo, who under his influence will become a simple, pleasant in communication, reliable, decisive and hardworking person. Leo (July 23-August 23) is a more controversial sign. He suits the owner of this name with energy, determination, organizational gift, but he can endow him with some qualities (for example, pride, vanity) that can spoil his character.

Pros and cons of the name Leo

What are the pros and cons of naming a child after Leo? With its brightness and sonority, it can certainly appeal to many young parents, especially since this name sounds familiar and sounds good in combination with Russian surnames and patronymics, and also has several euphonious reductions and abbreviations (for example, Leva, Lyovushka, Lionok). The pleasant nature of most owners of this name only adds to its pluses, and as for the minuses, for many parents they lie in the excessive symbolic directness of its meaning, because it is not customary for us to call children the names of animals, birds, objects.

Health

Leo's health is strong, he rarely gets sick and retains his strength until old age.

Love and family relationships

In family relationships, Leo will be comfortable if he chooses not an impulsive and energetic woman as his wife, but, on the contrary, a calm and gentle woman. In general, he is a good husband, kind, homely, hardworking. He adores his children, tries to pay much attention to them, dreams of providing them with a brilliant education.

Professional area

He was born in 1768 in the Oryol province. In his youth, he worked as clerks in commercial affairs, traveled a lot around the country, knew many people of completely different classes. At the age of 29, he entered the brethren of Optina Hermitage, and then moved to the Beloberezsky Monastery. In 1801, he became a monk with the name Leonid, and soon he was ordained a hierodeacon. Three years later he became the abbot of this monastery.

A huge role in his spiritual life was played by a meeting with the spirit-bearing elder Theodore, a disciple of Paisius (Velichkovsky). The elder taught Leonid to pray intelligently. Four years later, he leaves his position and moves with his father Theodore to the forest, where they wanted to asceticize in solitude. But the rumor about the two ascetics quickly spread among believers. The people reached out to the righteous.

In 1829 Saint Leo returned to Optina Hermitage. He began to nourish the brethren, healed people, many demon-possessed after the prayers of Fr. The lion was relieved. The eldership of the monk in Optina Hermitage lasted 12 years. In 1841, he peacefully reposed in the Lord.

Meaning of the name

Leo is a man obligatory, persistent, sincere and conscientious. He is responsive, friendly and tolerant of the shortcomings of others, which disposes and captivates. However, one should not abuse his restraint and tolerance, which can develop into irascibility and rudeness. In general, the owner of this name is a rather contradictory nature: he is both smart and simple at the same time, cunning and trusting, obligatory and frivolous. Life wisdom, firmness of his character, openness and honesty - these are the qualities that fully characterize the character of Leo.

Characteristics of the name Leo

Winter Lion impatient and quick-tempered, while he tries to avoid conflicts. But if you show rudeness and rudeness towards him, then he will definitely answer the same.

Among the negative qualities of the winter Leo, pride and vanity can be noted: for example, for the sake of fame and recognition, he may well transgress the norms of morality and morality. In a woman, this man appreciates, first of all, fidelity and calmness.

He does not deny himself anything, because he believes that one must live for the sake of obtaining pleasure. Spring Leo chooses a profession that will bring him not only material well-being, but also fame. His woman should also be the most beautiful, most intelligent and interesting - men should envy him, and women look at his chosen one with admiration. In general, this man can easily be called a ladies' man.

Summer Lion - nature is kind, sensitive and responsive. You can trust him with any secret, you can always turn to him for help. He will not betray or deceive. But often the kindness of the summer Leo turns against him, which eventually kills his faith in people, which can lead to the development of depression. In relations with women, this man is attentive, caring and faithful, and he expects the same from his chosen one. This is a wonderful family man, for whom the interests of loved ones are above all.

autumn lion - a man of principle and true to his ideals. He is energetic, active and purposeful.

The legend of the name Leo

The Lion of Catan was from the city of Catana, located on the island of Sicily. He was the son of noble and pious parents, who nurtured in his soul faith in Christ, which he carried through his whole life. This saint passed through all the sacred degrees before being elected bishop.

Having taken the episcopal rank, Leo of Catan took care of the orphans, the poor and widows, the sick and the holy fools. He healed the sickness of the afflicted with his prayers, was patient and merciful to his flock.

There is a legend about the sorcerer Iliodor, who renounced Christ (although he was brought up by pious and righteous parents) and went over to the side of Satan. Iliodor possessed an amazing power of persuasion and suggestion: for example, he turned stones into gold, and deserts into rivers (at least it seemed to people who succumbed to the influence of this sorcerer). More than once Iliodor was captured and sentenced to death, but always miraculously, becoming invisible, he managed to avoid death: he disappeared from his place of detention.

Saint Leo more than once tried to convince the sorcerer to move away from evil deeds and turn to God again, but he failed to persuade Iliodor. Moreover, he intensified his sorcery, aimed at trampling faith in Christ. So, during the Divine service, Iliodor secretly influenced the believers present in the church: they began to stomp in the church, laughing furiously and growling like animals.

But Saint Leo of Catania understood the insidious plan of the sorcerer, and therefore knelt down and began to pray fervently. Then he grabbed Iliodor with the help of an omophorion (an amice worn by priests on their shoulders), brought him to the middle of the city and ordered the people to kindle a fire in which the apostate sorcerer was supposed to burn like in hell. Together with Iliodor, Leo of Catania went into the fire, so that the apostate could not disappear again. The saint held the sorcerer until he was completely burned out, while Leo himself remained safe and sound.

This miracle strengthened all those gathered in the faith of Christ. It must be said that Leo of Catania performed many other miracles: he restored sight, cast out demons and overthrew idols.

The meaning of the name Leo

For a child

Little Leo is a calm and kind boy, looking at whom you can’t say that he can become an imperious leader (namely, such an imprint leaves his strong name on him). He easily makes contact with other children, and his right notions of true friendship and honor make him a very attractive friend. Leo is never the first to go into conflict, but it is worth offending him, as a quiet and balanced boy turns into a vindictive and implacable enemy.

At the same time, you should not relax, because, growing up, the character of the boy will become more and more contradictory. So, Leo, with his courage, will be afraid of the dark or heights, he will be energetic and tireless, but not when he needs to complete some task, he reacts sharply to justice and is ready to help a friend, but at the same time with strangers it can be selfish and even cruel.

Prohibitions and punishments are not the method by which you can get what you want from Levushka, but it’s also not worth anticipating all the boy’s desires if the parents don’t want to raise a domestic tyrant. In the upbringing of Leo, it is necessary to use the "carrot and stick" method.

Studying for Leo is given quite easily, although he is lazy, so it is better to instill in him such qualities as hard work, discipline and perseverance from early childhood.

Leo experiences his defeats calmly and without much tantrums: he knows how to analyze the situation and draw appropriate conclusions, which in adulthood makes it much easier for him to reach the cherished heights.

For teenager

The young Leo is ambitious, ambitious, active and determined. He always keeps his word, even if it threatens him with trouble. The balanced character, imperiousness and conscientiousness of this young man are always appreciated, so he has many friends who see the owner of the name Leo as an example to follow. Leo's sense of humor cannot but please, thanks to which he can defuse the most tense situation.

Sometimes in the character of Leo there is a certain phlegm, behind which lies the usual laziness, with which, if desired, this young man can cope without problems. If the goal is truly interesting to Leo, he will do everything possible to achieve it.

Already in his youth, Leo shows excellent organizational skills: he actively participates in the life of the school and the university, because he has not only leadership qualities, but also ingenuity, the ability to correctly prioritize and systematically build a model of behavior in a given situation.

In general, the young Leo does not like the sharp turns that fate sometimes gives us, he prefers a calm and measured life, without sharp ups and downs (although he will never miss a chance to show his heroism, thereby satisfying his ambition).

Important! If in his youth Leo can gain self-confidence, then his character will fully correspond to his name. If this does not work out, then it is highly likely that an irritable and suspicious man with an unbearable character will grow out of a calm and good-natured teenager.

For a man

Leo is a patient, restrained, attentive and diplomatic man who takes someone else's grief to heart. But if you hurt Leo's pride, then you can become a witness to the transformation of this man, who can turn into a real predator, not sparing anyone in his path.

It should be noted that Leo is quite tolerant of the shortcomings of people, since he believes that everyone (even such an ideal person as he) tends to make mistakes. The main thing is to be able to work on the mistakes.

An adult Leo is reliable, decisive and consistent, and he shows these qualities both at work and in his personal life. Although there are periods in the life of Leo that are characterized by an extreme degree of frivolity, this is especially evident during periods of falling in love. Knowing this, Leo tries to control his feelings and emotions in order to maintain the image of a serious and powerful man.

The demanding owner of this name does not like fuss, especially ostentatious, he will not appreciate boasting, because Leo himself can be called a modest person. He will put boors, liars and hypocrites in their place with great pleasure, although he himself can sometimes embellish his significance.

Description of the name Leo

Moral

A fair and honest Leo appreciates decency and responsiveness in people, since he himself has such qualities. In life, he tries not to violate the established norms of morality and morality.

Leo is the owner of extremely good health, which he observes in almost perfect condition until old age.

And all thanks to the fact that this man is trying to lead a healthy lifestyle, which implies the absence of bad habits.

Love

Leo is a loving and temperamental man, but only until the moment when he truly loves. He is faithful and devoted to his beloved, besides, Leo really appreciates a sincere relationship in which there is no place for lies. He most often ends his hasty novels peacefully, and his former partners often remain on friendly terms with him.

It is quite natural that this man will turn his attention to a kind, calm and open woman, devoid of guile and hypocrisy. But cold women repel him.

Note that on the love front, Leo is afraid to fail, therefore, when problems arise in a relationship with a woman, he immediately tries to end the romance.

Marriage

Leo enters into marriage rather late, and even then more for the reason that it is already time to start a family. At the same time, when choosing a partner, he is most often guided by reason and even cold calculation: for example, Leo will stop his choice on a strong, sexy, attractive, bright and talented woman, whose presence will not go unnoticed in society. At the same time, his chosen one should be caring and gentle.

Leo tends to make mistakes with the choice of a life partner, so there may be several marriages in his life.

Leo is an ideal husband for an imperfect wife: for a long time, he is loyal to the creative mess in the house, unwashed dishes in the sink and hastily cooked dinner. But you should not relax, because one day he can go to a woman who knows how to create an atmosphere of coziness and comfort in the house.

As a father, Leo is kind and gentle, and often too much, which can negatively affect the upbringing of his children. I must say that the inconsistency of the character of this man is also manifested in the upbringing of children: today Leo will allow children to do whatever they please, and tomorrow he will punish them for the smallest mistake.

It is interesting that Leo chooses an energetic and impulsive woman as his wife, who tries to tame Leo and make him an affectionate domestic cat. But thanks to his diplomacy, this man quickly makes it clear who is who (conflicts in the Leo family are also resolved quickly).

The main thing in family relationships for Leo is sincerity and fidelity.

Sexuality

In the sexual sphere, Leo is very vulnerable: he is very upset by disappointments in his intimate life, therefore he values \u200b\u200bthose partners who completely suit him and whom he suits.

For Leo, diversity in intimate relationships is important, so he prefers experienced and relaxed partners who are not averse to dreaming up.

And one more thing: for Leo, the concepts of sex and spiritual intimacy are inseparable, so he is looking for not only a passionate and temperamental, but also a gentle woman who can surround him with care and love.

Mind (intelligence)

Leo is smart, but lazy, so he often does not bring his plan to the end. In addition, it can be difficult for him to focus his attention on the main thing, as he scatters it on minor things.

An honest and fair Leo enjoys unquestioned authority among those around him, although in a difficult situation he may be confused, but he will never show it.

He is easily given professions that require responsibility, dedication and even self-sacrifice. Therefore, Leo often chooses the field of a doctor, soldier or journalist. He does not hesitate to develop, which helps him grow in his chosen field, which is also facilitated by his qualities such as hard work and discipline. I must say that when choosing a profession for Leo, the possibility of career growth is important.

In work, as in life, this man always adheres to strict moral and ethical principles, which helps him to establish excellent relations with both subordinates and superiors.

Business

Leo will make an excellent businessman who knows how to adapt to modern realities in time and reorganize if necessary. He knows how to lead, which is important in business. And, of course, the owner of this name cannot be deprived of his communication skills.

Hobbies

Leo is fond of fishing, loves to relax in nature in the company of friends and family.

Character type

Leo is a peace-loving and calm nature, if you do not touch it. But it is worth touching on his pride or doubting his abilities, as a cold-blooded and vengeful man will appear before you. In general, this is a kind, lively and sincere person, who is difficult to imagine in anger.

This man is brave and bold, straightforward, purposeful and responsive. The only thing he lacks is support, because often even relatives identify Leo with the king of beasts, mistakenly believing that a strong-willed person does not need words of approval.

Intuition

Leo rarely puts his well-developed intuition into practice, preferring to rely more on reason.

Leo horoscope

Leo - Aries

This is an active, energetic and adventurous man, whose life is unthinkable without risk. Leo-Aries, who has a cheerful disposition and a great sense of humor, does not accept monotony, so he tries to bring maximum positive emotions into his life. Leo-Aries is loving and passionate: stormy romances, romantic impulses and temperamental nights form the basis of his life. Only now most of the novels end quickly enough, despite the fact that this man wants a stable and long relationship.

This is a vain egoist, among the shortcomings of which one can note straightforwardness and harshness in relation to others. Demanding Leo-Taurus does not forgive anyone (even himself) for mistakes, although he often acts impulsively and thoughtlessly.

It is not surprising that it is difficult to find a common language with this man, especially since Leo-Taurus is trying to subordinate people to his will. The woman of this man must have truly angelic patience if she wants to maintain a relationship.

Leo - Gemini

This merry fellow and joker, possessing an incredible charm, deservedly bears the honorary title of "the soul of the company." This is a wonderful friend who will always lend a helping hand, and in return will require only participation and attention to himself (Leo-Gemini generally loves praise and compliments). This is a very amorous man who finds it difficult to focus on one relationship, because today he likes blondes, and tomorrow - brunettes. If you want to keep Leo-Gemini, you will have to try to constantly maintain interest in yourself.

Leo - Cancer

Emotional, straightforward, but at the same time vulnerable, sensual and insecure Leo-Cancer can show not only kindness towards others, but also aggression (in the event that he is offended). Moreover, his aggression is nothing more than one of the ways to protect yourself from disappointment in people. In order for Leo-Cancer to trust a woman, she needs to show affection, tenderness and care towards him. A cold and pragmatic woman will not be able to win the heart of this man.

Leo - Leo

High self-esteem, ambitiousness and practicality - these are the main character traits of Leo, born under the zodiac sign of the same name. He is always firmly convinced that he is right, while he takes criticism hard, even if it is fair and justified. Leo is flattered by the attention of the fair sex, so he takes it for granted. But women expect reciprocal manifestations of feelings from him, so when they do not find them, they simply leave.

Leo - Virgo

The shy, modest and taciturn Leo-Virgo tries to overcome his weaknesses, and if he fails to do this, he simply puts on the mask of an uncompromising and tough man. He hardly trusts people, so he has practically no friends. Leo-Virgo does not like crowded events and tries to avoid noisy companies, preferring loneliness to them. In women, he appreciates calmness, intelligence, prudence and the ability to create an atmosphere of comfort and warmth. Impulsive and temperamental tigresses frighten this man.

This is a man with a complex character, to endure, and even more so to understand which is not given to everyone. Sometimes Leo-Libra seems overly emotional, and sometimes, on the contrary, too cold, aloof and indifferent.

At the same time, this man will not miss the chance to be in the center of everyone's attention, because he loves to receive compliments and praise. The Leo-Libra woman should be his worthy addition, while she may not even claim the main role in their relationship.

Leo - Scorpio

Purposefulness and ambition are the essential qualities of Leo-Scorpio, who by nature is a born leader, not ready to take second or third places. But this man is prevented from succeeding by his temper, impulsiveness and aggressiveness. In addition, this man absolutely does not know how to perceive criticism, which interferes with his work. Next to Leo-Scorpio, only a calm woman, devoid of any ambitions and ready to devote all her time to her family, will get along.

Leo - Sagittarius

The straightforward and sharp Leo-Sagittarius always says only what he thinks, although he does not want to offend anyone with his statements, because he himself has a vulnerable and tender soul. Romanticism and sentimentality, vulnerability and softness are inherent in him, so it is very easy to circle this man around his finger. If this happens, then Leo-Sagittarius can withdraw into himself for a long time. In a woman, he appreciates such qualities as loyalty and non-conflict.

Leo - Capricorn

Diligence, responsibility and discipline of Leo-Capricorn is the key to his rapid career growth. He makes very high demands both on others and on himself, believing that there is no limit to perfection to which one must strive. Leo-Capricorn often idealizes people, which is fraught with disappointment (this is especially true for relationships with the fair sex). To deceive this man is easy, but to fall in love with yourself is not an easy task.

The sincerity, gullibility and openness of Leo-Aquarius turn against him, because this man absolutely does not know how to understand people. He treats everyone wonderfully, not noticing their small and big shortcomings at all.

Leo-Aquarius is betrayed more than once, which does not prevent him from trusting people again and again and making new friends. A woman who can understand and accept Leo with all his shortcomings will be happy in marriage, because this man will surround her with care and love.

Leo - Pisces

Emotionality, impressionability and vulnerability of Leo-Pisces are combined with such qualities as self-doubt. Therefore, this man needs a strong friend and reliable adviser who can defend the interests of his comrade if something happens. A woman for Leo-Pisces is a muse that inspires him to "great accomplishments." For such a woman, he is ready to move mountains, if only she loved him and supported him in all endeavors.

Leo name compatibility with female names

Leo and Olga

This is an alliance that is unlikely to take place if Lev and Olga do not learn to give in to each other.

And for this you will have to realize the fact that two strong characters cannot peacefully coexist on the same territory. Someone will have to give the palm.

The meeting of the owners of the names Leo and Anna is already something extraordinary, not to mention the emergence of a relationship between them.

But if this did happen, then the practical and active Leo will become an excellent husband for the dreamy and sometimes frivolous Anna.

Leo and Elena

The diplomatic and imposing Leo easily wins the heart of the independent and freedom-loving Elena. But such a rush can become an obstacle to building the truly strong and reliable relationship that this couple aspires to.

Leo and Julia

The emotionality and temperament of both partners affect the development of the relationship of this couple, which has much in common (for example, interests and life guidelines), but also breeds a lot (both Leo and Yulia are owners of militant and strong characters).

Leo and Anastasia

But! The love of freedom and the desire for independence of Leo and Katya can break the idyll in this tandem, which is fraught with parting.

Leo and Natalia

This is a strong union, which can also be described as "strange" and "incomprehensible." On the one hand, Leo and Natasha are parts of the same puzzle, and on the other hand, both partners are quite selfish and conceited (especially Leo). But this does not prevent them from building their ideal family.

Leo and Marina

These two can create a beautiful and vibrant tandem that will not be bored. But in the pursuit of emotions and unforgettable impressions, it is important not to forget about stability, without which no productive relationship can exist for a long time.
Marina - the meaning of the name, origin, characteristics, horoscope

Leo and Mary

The self-willed Svetlana is in no hurry to part with independence, while the energetic Leo also does not decide on a serious relationship for a long time.

Leo and Christina

Therefore, this union can predict a happy future, in which there will be very few clouds.

Leo and Ludmila

This couple is rarely able to maintain the feeling that arises between them at the first meeting. And everything is to blame for different views on life: for example, it is important for Lyudmila to start a family, while Leo values freedom more, while family ties scare him.

Leo and Galina

It is also important that their intimate life is also multifaceted.

Leo and Alena

This is a fatal union for Leo, in which he falls into the net of prudent Alena, who knows how to competently build her line of behavior in such a way as to win the most impregnable man. Bottom line: a union in which everything rests solely on the enthusiasm of a woman.

Leo and Alexandra

Real passions rage in the union of Leo and Alexandra, therefore, many predict collapse of this relationship. Surprisingly, this couple can perfectly live their whole lives together, despite the emotional outbursts that happen between them from time to time.

Seeing the people quarreling at the sorcery suggestion, Saint Leo left the altar and, having tied the sorcerer's neck with his omophorion (part of the church vestment), led him out of the temple to the square. There he ordered a fire to be built and without hesitation entered the fire together with the sorcerer, holding the sorcerer with an omophorion. Iliodor burned down, but Saint Leo, by the power of God, remained unharmed. He died around 780.

NAME AND CHARACTER

Little Levushka has very contradictory properties: he is brave, but afraid, for example, of water or the dark, he is tireless, but also lazy, kind, generous, but can be selfish and cruel. Parents should know that prohibitions and punishments, especially humiliating ones, will not achieve anything.

NAME IN HISTORY AND ART

Lev Samoilovich Bakst (1866-1924) - painter, graphic artist, theater decorator, was a member of the World of Art association, most famous at the turn of the century.

One of the largest paintings by Lev Bakst is Ancient Horror (1908). The canvas depicts an ancient rocky land flooded by the sea with the brilliance of lightning. Against the background of this landscape, an archaic statue of a mysteriously smiling goddess is depicted in the foreground. The picture can be understood as a picturesque interpretation of the old idea: "Life is short, art is eternal."

The period 1907-1917 was especially fruitful for Bakst. Russian ballet seasons are being organized in Paris. The success of "Russian Seasons" was truly triumphant, and Bakst's scenery played a significant role in this. Already the first production of Bakst - "Cleopatra" (1909) made a huge impression on the audience. Multi-colored brilliance captivated the viewer. As A. Benois, the artist, one of the founders of the World of Art, wrote, “against this strange (granite-pink and gloomy purple), really southern, hot and stuffy background, the purples of the costumes lit up so richly, gold shone, flying wigs blackened, so menacingly approached ... Cleopatra's stretcher, covered with inscriptions. Against this harsh, solid background, the dances of the thin Egyptians and the powerfully smooth movements of the bronze muscular Egyptians seemed so sparkling, gentle and cat-like.

The scenery and costumes on the themes of ancient mythology - the ballet "Daphnis and Chloe", "Afternoon of a Faun" were refined and refined, corresponded to the music.

In the scenery for "Scheherazade" (1910), on the contrary, the colors rage in the image - heavy emerald-green draperies, a blood-red carpet covering the floor and a mysterious blue twilight in the back of the stage.

In sketches for costumes, Bakst created his own finished style. He depicted figures in motion, very active, energetic. From this, hair is swept to the sides, light fabrics of clothes flutter ... The decorative art of Lev Bakst was the highest point of the "Russian Seasons" in Paris.

The success of Bakst, the extraordinary thoughtfulness and decorativeness of the costumes, prompted the owners of fashion houses to contact him with orders for costume sketches. Bakst began working together with the then fashion dictator Poiret. For Russia, such a sphere of application of artistic talent was still unusual, the public was surprised about his "strange" and "obscure" interest in everyday things - clothing. But Bakst was serious about creating models. A suit for him meant something more than just a necessary item. Both in past times and in modern times, a costume, he said, “is a refined and spiritualized form of a whole period of civilization.” Since model houses served only a certain, very narrow circle of people, the exquisite unusualness, even extravagance of the model was considered its necessary quality. Bakst made drawings for the cycles of costumes in "Oriental", "Indian", "antique" styles. Bakst did not feel like a craftsman-tailor, but an artist who endows his creations with his own life, hidden meaning, a special language that evokes associations and memories.

A picturesque gift, mastery of technique, freedom in the choice of manner and high taste have always distinguished the creations of Lev Bakst.

The Greek word "leon" means "king of beasts". As you can see, this beautiful historical name has a magical power that attracts success. A person with this name will achieve a lot in life, because his royal nature must live in luxury and honor.

Child's name

The owner of this name must have such traits as nobility, willpower, courage, otherwise the name may be mocking. If the task is to choose a name for the boy, Leo is a good option, but only if the parents are sure that they can raise a child with a strong spirit and will. The fact is that a beautiful and noble name imposes a serious responsibility. You should think very carefully when choosing a name for a boy. Leo in his youth must develop self-confidence, then his nature will be in harmony with the name, and in later life this combination will play in his favor. If the situation is the opposite, then the boy will become suspicious and unbearable. It is not easy to make an informed decision when choosing a name suitable for a child, but there are a lot of pluses in favor of this beautiful historical name and almost no minuses.

Leo: characterization of the name

A person with this name is tolerant of mistakes, diplomatic, exactly until he is pissed off. Close people know that it is better not to anger Leo. If you think about it, Leo - the name of the origin of which speaks for itself. Representatives of this name often forget about caution, are prone to risk, often go in for extreme sports. Leo is a name whose origin comes from the king of animals, so he must be the first and best in everything, especially when choosing a companion. Women feel the inner strength of Leo, therefore they almost always sympathize with him. The conqueror of women's hearts, the clever and handsome Leo, will not become arrogant, although arrogance is really inherent in him.

The name Leo (the origin and meaning of it) affects the character of the boy who wears it. A child, like a real natural lion, is outwardly calm, problems rarely arise with him, he is always respectful of his parents, does not stoop to manipulation and whims. It should be noted that Leo is vulnerable in his soul, often worries, especially if he notices disrespect for himself from others. A child with this name usually keeps a face in the classroom, he is respected at school and in the yard by the guys. Parents are always pleased with their son, he is never seen in stupid fights or pranks, as he is restrained and patient. Leo impresses with his abilities literally to all subjects, therefore it is difficult for him to choose a favorite: all of them are easy for him. Leo as a child is more attached to his mother, he never has even light quarrels with her, he tries to avoid them. But one should not assume that Leo is quiet, on the contrary, he is always actively involved in both school and family life.

L. Tsymbalova also tells about the origin of the name Leo - from the king of animals. In biblical history, the Lion is a symbol of the tribe of Judah, from which all Jews (Jews) originated.

L. Tsymbalova describes Leo as an intelligent and self-seeking person. There is truth in her words: the nature of the young Leo is contradictory, he can be both brave and, on the contrary, very timid. Little Lions, as L. Tsymbalova writes, are often afraid of the dark, but parents need to explain to the child that they should fight their fears, then the character will quickly harden. Also, L. Tsymbalova claims that it is better not to spoil little Lions, otherwise, when they grow up, they will turn into real tyrants. Their upbringing should be approached carefully and seriously. Fate grants the Lions dominance over all living beings. The bearer of this name will crush the enemy, lead people. It is Lviv that is called the creators of history.
