Leica Origin and Meaning

The name Leica is a girl's name meaning "Leitz's camera".

Leica is a camera brand that made the news years ago when a photographer gave it to his daughter. It has never charted as a baby name in the US but is definitely a plausible (and attractive) choice for the daughter of a photography lover.

The brand name is a combination of the founder's surname, Leitz, and the first two letters of "camera."
