Leondria is English in Origin.

Leondria is a modern feminine given name built on the Greek element leon ('lion'), conveyed through the family of Leon/Leona/Leander names, with a melodic -dria ending modeled on classical forms like Alexandria. Semantically, it carries the sense of "lionlike," suggesting courage and strength; by association with Leander (Leandros, "lion of a man"), it can also be read as "lion woman."

Documented in late 20th-century U.S. usage, the name remains rare but recognizable, especially in communities that favor inventive elaborations of traditional roots. Variant spellings and near-forms include Leondra, Leondrea, Leandria, Leandra, and Leona; masculine counterparts are Leander and Leandro. Short forms such as Dria, Lea, and Ria occur in practice. Though without a long medieval record, Leondria fits comfortably among Greek-derived, Latinate feminine names and offers a distinctive, dignified alternative to the more common Leona or Leandra.
