I love Leo and also Leon
I like the meaning and see Leo as a classy and classic name. Leon is gorgous imo, it sounds more French. Why would you not dare to use it?

Leo IS a formal name
If you click on the name Leo, you find that it has been used by popes and emperors and by the famous author Leo Tolstoy.

Why would you be scared to use it?
If you're worried that it might be considered too "elderly" or "weird", this will not be the case. Leo has tripled in use in the USA since 1990 and is now among the top 250 names for boys. It is also now one of the top names in France. Children of the generation being born now will find it to be completely normal for someone their age.

I really like Leo, either as a stand-alone name or a NN for Leopold (and we can all blame South Park for getting me hooked on *that* name...)
