First up is Leonardo, or Leo to his friends. He’s the cool-headed leader who wields two katanas and wears a blue mask. Ever notice how he’s always the one making the tough calls? That’s because he’s named after Leonardo da Vinci, the ultimate “Renaissance man”—a painter, inventor, and all-around genius.
Does that ring a bell? Yeah, the guy who painted the Mona Lisa. So when Leo says, “Let’s roll,” he’s channeling some serious artistic authority. It’s kind of funny: a ninja turtle named after a guy who painted a lady with a mysterious smile. But hey, it works.
