Leonardo Dicaprio

Ever since he emerged with a stunning performance as an abused stepson in “This Boy’s Life” (1993), actor Leonardo DiCaprio was expected to achieve greatness by critics and the public alike. While he became a bona fide star, nothing prepared him for the life-changing celebrity he achieved with the James Cameron’s smash “Titanic” (1997). Leonardo is a variation of the English, French and German name Leo in the Portuguese language. It is also a version of the old English name Leonard. The two elements which make up this name are ‘leon’ meaning ‘lion’ and ‘hart’ meaning ‘brave’.
