Same era, but close to Leroy
These names follow Leroy's curve too, but we left them out above because they share a first letter or an ending with Leroy. Some parents like that echo; if you do, start here.
How these were chosen
Each suggestion's share of US babies has followed a curve close to Leroy's since 1880, and its recent number of babies is within about twelve times Leroy's, so the names are in the same league. Names starting with the same letter as Leroy or with the same ending are left out, so the names go together without matching. Spellings of Leroy itself are excluded.
