Leonidas Photo of leonidas for American Bulldog Names We didn't have a name picked out for him actually at that time we got him. The family and I were watching the movie "300".. We noticed every time the king Leonidas would yell. He would stand up walk over to the t.v. and sits there. Even at times he would bark.. We didn't think of it at first. But then my boyfriend wanted to turn up the volume but ended up hitting the wrong button causing him to start over. While finding where we last left off. King Leonidas yells again and he comes, popping his head up and this time he got excited and starting bark while doing all types of turns and puppy flips and butt in the air.. Then it dawned on us that he has chosen his own name. Leonidas it was.. He has lived up to the name since.
