Aryeh = lion (hebrew)
Leibush = little lion (yiddish)
Yehuda = hodaah - praise/thanks (hebrew)
Leib = praise/thanks (yiddish) pronounced loib to thank
Lev = heart (hebrew)

does that help?
I heard this from a big talmid chacham

I am Aliza and my daughter is Fraida

We checked with a Rav

No one’s ever commented except for my mother, when we named her


What's the connection between Aliza and Freida, ive only heard Rina being used instead

Leib isn't related to the word loib. It's the literal translation of Arye/Lion.

My father is Leib and my brother is Yehuda. I never heard of the names being the same until I married DH and he has a family member named Yehuda who has been called Leiby his entire life.

There's no way on this green earth that I'd name a sister and brother Chaya and Chaim. Or Eliezer and Elisheva for that matter, because chances are they'd wind up being called Eli and Ellie. Not for any woo-woo reason, I totally don't believe in that, but because it can get messy with school tests and blood tests and confusing for ordinary mortals whose hearing may not be perfect.

Generally people do it for family reasons
