Leonardi Family History
Recorded in many spelling forms including Leonard, Lennard, Learned (England), Leonhard, Leonhardt (Germany), Leonardi, Leonardo, Lunardi (Italy), Lenart (Czech) and many, many more, this is a surname of Germanic or occasionally Irish origins. It derives from either the pre 7th century German personal name "Leonhard", composed of the elements "levon" meaning a lion, and "hardu", brave or hardy. The first recorded bearer of this given name was a 6th century saint who was consistently popular in France and England well into the Middle Ages, claiming over one hundred church dedications to his credit.Who have we missed?
