Etymology[]
Bayer (バイエル?) - The name Bayer comes from German Bayern, "Bavaria", referring to person from Bavaria[1]. It's also a reference to the fact that Flower Maiden Pretty Cure! is set in Bavaria.
Leona (レオナ?) - Leona is the feminine form of Leon[2], which is derived from Greek leon meaning "lion". During the Christian era this Greek name was merged with the Latin cognate Leo, with the result that the two forms are used somewhat interchangeably across European languages. In England during the Middle Ages this was a common name among Jews. A famous bearer was Leon Trotsky (1879-1940), a Russian Communist revolutionary.[3]
