Slats was the first lion used for the newly-formed studio. He was born at Dublin Zoo, Ireland on March 20, 1919. Slats was used on all black and white MGM films between 1924 and 1928.

From 1928 - 1956, the lion was Jackie

From 1934 - 1956 Tanner was also used.

From 1957 - 83 the lion was Leo

so it looks like your answer should be Jackie

The lions name was Caibre

Pat O'Brien ?

Thanks all, I did eventually find out it was Cairbre.

Correct. Although MGM called the lion 'Leo' his actual name was Cairbre.
