Leona was baptized into the Fabrian Church on 25 December 1994, at Sancta Sapientia, in Castellum, by Pope Ignatius I.

Leona has been styled as ''Princess of Latium'' and "Princess of Perateia" since her birth. She was named Leona after her grandfather Leo X Claudius, Jacoba for her father, Evantia for her great-great grandmother Evantia of Perateia, and Diana for her grandmother Diana I Anicia. Like her father and siblings, Leona also holds the second nomen Anicia to honor the dynasty of her grandmother Diana.
