Leica

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."

Pronounced LY-kuh.

As of October 2026, Leica ranked #16591 for girls in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #5097 for girls in 1961.
