What do Leopard Geckos morph mean?

A leopard gecko morph is a variation in a leopard gecko's size, coloration pattern, or other physical characteristics.

These mutations are used in order to create a specific, unique color or pattern for the leopard gecko, and they do this by combining dominant and codominant genes.
