- warpspin 3y agoNone, pure coincidence. leo.org actually comes from "link everything online" and the use of the lion in the Bavarian coat of arms. It used to be a FTP site which transformed to an HTTP archive site, which transformed, if my memory does not betray me to some kind of web directory. Then a couple of students added diverse helper scripts, among those a dictionary and nowadays only the dictionary service survived and was commercialized.
