[Opinions] Re: Leona
I've never seen it in use; here in South Africa we use Leonie and pronounce it lee-OH-nee (like Naomi, which is nay-OH-mee here). Most recently there was a character in a TV soapie called Lee, short for Leonie; she was the competent, rich and ambivalent daughter of the villain, and in her late 20s probably. The actress died, last year I think, and had to be written out of the story rather abruptly; no clue if either event impacted on its popularity.However, like Pie I expect there might be a few new ones in the wake of the singer.
