Leo

Maned zodiac symbol

Leo is a male given name, from Latin for "lion." It has seen renewed popularity in recent decades: Leo just started kindergarten.

Leo is also one of the twelve signs of the zodiac, represented by the lion and covering those born roughly late July to late August: She's a Leo, so she's supposedly confident and dramatic. (Lowercase leo is not standard.)
