I think it's got a certain retro cool.

I like it as a nn thought. I have a friend who is Lee but has always been called Leroy.

It works for him, but it's definatly a name that you have to 'fit'

Umm
Leroy sounds a character from either Lenny Henry in the 1980s or The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Fancy calling your son 'the king'! Won't be to many people's taste.

Horrid.

No. Aside from all the other reasons, Leroy in our school was the naughty boy who kept getting suspended.

I went out with a Leroy. Everyone I knew used to piss themselves at his name as he was so not a Leroy!
