Origin
Liepard appears to draw inspiration from the leopard cat, a species of wildcat that appear to have traits of both housecats and leopards. It also slightly resembles a black panther, because of its dark coloration and the fact that spots on a panther's coat can be seen if examined closely.
Name origin
Liepard is a combination of lie and leopard.
Lepardas is a combination of leopard and πάρδος pardus (Greek for leopard).
