Meaning of leoncio by furoya

1º_ Leoncio is a male name of Latin origin for Leon , ontis that comes from leo , onis ("lion , bold and brave person , zodiac sign of leo" ) with the suffix -tio , -onis that the Spanish took as "-cio and -ción" , although it is certain that the Romans were inspired by oriental languages , since in Greek there is 955; 949; 969; 957; ( leoon "lion") and in Hebrew 1500; 1464; 1489; 1460; 1497; 1488; ( lavi "adult lion" ) . 2º_ There were several historical and fictitious characters with this name, and I take this opportunity to mention the mascot of channel 11 television of Buenos Aires (Argentina) during the 1960s and some years of the following decade, when the station was called Teleonce and by phonetic similarity they baptized Leoncio to that crowned anthropomorphic lion.
