Regardless of Leonidas' importance as a figure to his culture, his modern popularity is largely the result of a movie and a dead meme. I'm definitely not saying he shouldn't have been used, of course. I'm all for his usage. But his notability as a character to any degree has largely faded, and falling under what Nikki said, I doubt many would have an issue if Leonidas hadn't been used yet. Meanwhile, Master Chief is one of the most iconic FPS character and probably among one of the most iconic video game characters ever.
