Not keen on Denzel sorry!
It reminds me of either only fools and horses if pronounced denz-erl
Or Den-zell washington

The others on your list are lovely, really like all of those

No, sorry. A Denzel/Denzil is sitting alongside Barry, Gordon, Terry and Reg in the bookies on a Saturday afternoon. With a fag.

All I can think of is only fools and horses.

I had the vision Bruno had! Grin It does seem very downmarket.

Prefer Harry from your list.

Denzel makes me think of Denzel (Denzil?) Washington. Who I like!

Denzel is cool imo. I also like Ewan. Really don't like Harry or Dylan.

I'm not a fan of Denzel. I prefer Ewan from your list.

Not keen on Denzel or Dylan tbh.

Ewan is fab & I like Harry too.

Please choose one of the others. Denzel is just too hilarious. Put it on the list though, you'll look back and laugh in 6 months time.

Dylan - quite cool.
Harry - 1 direction fan
Ewan - prefer Evan

Thanks everyone so the majority dont like it. ButI'm going to keep it on the list for now, I do really like it but I'm not sure it's the one, also I've never watched only fools and horses, so i can only associate the name with Denzel Washington who is a great actor! X
