Leonie

• (lee..own..ee) again sounds feminine but spirited as well I like the name because it can come across as sweet and vunerable or as tom boyish. Feminine form of Leon, it is an old name that seems to be coming back. I like it because it seems nice for a little girl with a big pink ribbon in the hair and also for a distinguish woman.
• female form of Leo, meaning Lion. Cool name! :-)

Used in German and in the form Léonie in French, this is a feminine form of the Roman name Leonius. Leonius is derived from Leo, which means "lion" in Latin.
