I see "Leefa" too...

As for how "Leafa" came up, it says on her page Official Naming that 葉 (last kanji of her given name) means "leaf", and that was how this translation is derived.

Would we rather stick to the anime, or go by how we think it's supposed to be... I personally like "Leafa" more...
