About Leofstan

A chivalrous, knightly sounding choice, that blends the appeal of Tristan, Leon, Laertes, and Leonard. Appearing in several historical chronicles and borne by a 10th century Bishop of London called Leofstan, it would make a bold choice for a baby, but an intriguing one for a character in a historical or fantasy novel.

It is pronounced as leh-ohf-stan, leh like the sound in bled and ohf like the sound in cough. These first two syllables glide into each other, rather than being two very separate sounds.

Pronounced leh-ohf-stan.
