Leander

I am scanning through the 'beyond the top 1000' document and saw Leander... I think I fell in love instantly. DH vetoed though 
but I think I may keep it in mind to keep trying 
(especially since I'm not even pregnant yet!)
Anyway, am I nuts for loving it? WDYT? Oh and a small part of the appeal is that I could use Andy as a NN. Andy has a huge significance in my family but DH and I are a little bored with Andrew. Though, I really don't think this awesome name needs a NN.

Re: Leander
Awesome! If he was born in 2010 (my assumption), then apparently he is one of 55 Leander's born that year!

Wow... my FIL is Leonard and goes by Buck!!
Love Leander!!
I really like it!
It's the name of a character in one of my favorite books, In The Time of the Butterflies. (Well, Leandro, but they lived in the DR).
