I was looking at Facebook and I noticed someone I went to high school with, got married recently and his new bride had a baby.  I didn't know what the baby's name was until I looked around and her name is Vivian.
Also, a girl I went to college with had a baby recently and she named him something totally unexpected.  Leopold.  It just seems so, out of place in this day and age.

I kind of like Leopold, and Lionel as well (similar sounding to me).

I kind of like Leopold. If I had to pick a name for Leo to be a nn for, that would probably be it.

Maybe Leopold's parents are Hugh Jackman fans? Kate & Leopold?

And Vivian was a character on Days of Our Lives, I know it's a legit name, but I have never met a real person named Vivian.
