Leanne: Lee + Anne
Variants: Leann, Leanna, Lee Ann, Lee Anna, Lee Anne, Leeann, Leeanne, Leiana, Leianne, Leighann
Some sources say that your name origin is Anglo Saxon, some other Hawaiian. One of the meaning is Goddess Of Canoe-Makers. Maybe it means Lioness - strong and brave!? To be honest I don't know exact meaning behind your name, and I in no way endorse or approve the above said meanings.
Anyhow, Leanne is so beautiful and elegant name.
Good luck, Leanne!
