The only Lionel I've ever met in person was a transvestite!

It's an old name that hasn't dated well.

My Mum used to work with a man called Lionel Tiger. Why not change your surname by deed poll? I think it's splendid.

Lionel Rich Tea

We watched Lionel Ritchie on a sounds of the 80"s type programme the other way. I'd forgotten how much I liked Hello! I think I prefer Leonard as a name though.

Lionel. Oh please not.
