Lennard is in Origin.
Lennard is a variant spelling of Leonard, ultimately from Old High German Leonhard, built from the elements leon- "lion" and -hard "brave, hardy," yielding the sense "lion-strong" or "brave as a lion." The form Lennard reflects Low German and Dutch orthography, and occasionally appears in English where it also survives as a surname.
The name spread across medieval Europe through the cult of Saint Leonard of Noblac, which, combined with Norman French Léonard, established the standard English Leonard. Today Lennard sees intermittent use in Germany and the Netherlands, while Leonard, Leonhard (German), Léonard (French), Leonardo (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese), Lénárd (Hungarian), and Lennart (Scandinavian/German) are better-known cognates. Short forms include Len, Lenny, and Leo. A feminine counterpart, Leonarda, exists in several languages. The surname Lennard in Britain likely developed as a stabilized medieval spelling of the given name.
