📖 Sobre Léandre
Léandre é a elegante forma francesa do antigo nome grego Leandros, que significa 'homem-leão'. Nascido da mitologia — a trágica história de amor de Leandro, que atravessava o Helesponto a nado todas as noites para encontrar a sua amada Hero —, o nome carrega séculos de ressonância romântica e literária. São Leandro de Sevilha conferiu-lhe gravidade eclesiástica, enquanto a Commedia dell'arte tornou 'Léandre' num querido arquétipo teatral do jovem galante. Raro, mas refinado, permanece como um nome de profundas raízes clássicas e beleza poética atemporal.
