Name Origin

Leandros is a Greek masculine given name, derived from the ancient Greek name Λεάνδρος (Leandros). The meaning of Leandros is debated, with some sources suggesting it means 'lion-man' or 'soft man,' while others link it to the Greek word for 'beautiful.' It was popularized by the legendary tale of Leander, a young man who swam across the Hellespont every night to meet his beloved Hero.
