Interesting how many times the name LEIUS comes up in sports... A Russian Tennis player, an American Baseball player and a French Tennis player. But it is a name that has been around for a very long time. The form of "leius" appeared in surnames as early as Greco-Roman Times. An Italian/African writer, Lucius Apu-leius, lived in an Italian colony in Africa, during the time of Plato and Plutarch. There are many surnames with the first name having the suffix "-leius". The Italian writer Matthias Leius is cited in 1623. A Greek writer Conradus Leius wrote in 1581 a book about Paul the Apostle. There was also a racing car named Leius, manufactured in 1957.
