Meaning & background
(lee-OR): Often used for boys, but increasingly appreciated as a flexible choice depending on family preference and community. Stateside, it enters U.S. records in 1969. It has been picking up quiet momentum lately, though it stays below the top 1,000. Only about 1,200 children have carried it, making it genuinely rare.
