[Opinions] Keke Palmer had a son…
His name is Leodis Andrellton “Leo”.To quote Nameberry:
QuoteKeke Palmer and partner Darius Jackson welcomed their first child, a son named Leodis Andrellton, "Leo".
Both Leodis and Andrellton are totally unique names, given to fewer than five baby boys in 2021 — the last year for which data is available.
On Instagram, Palmer wrote, "Born during Black History Month, with a name to match!" Leodis is, and has been, predominantly used among African Americans. It had two peaks — in 1935 and 1950 — when it was given to 15 baby boys.
Leodis naturally shortens to the stylish nickname Leo, and has the fashionable S ending. It's a vintage name with modern appeal, and we expect more parents will use Leodis now that Palmer has introduced it to a contemporary audience.
Leodis is Celtic in origin, meaning "people living by the strongly flowing river". It was derived from the place name Lādenses — the original name for Leeds, the now-British city in Yorkshire.
The most notable Leodis (prior this starbaby) is football player Leodis McKelvin. The related name Leotis was famously borne by boxer Leotis Martin — the first-ever North American Boxing Federation heavyweight champion.
Thoughts? I’m pleasantly surprised.
