Love it

bridgetreilly · 21/10/2019 22:09

Don't like it.

Collision · 21/10/2019 22:13

Awful

december20100 · 21/10/2019 22:21

Big bang fan? 🙂

spice3 · 21/10/2019 22:23

Don't like this at all, sorry!

Ellapaella · 21/10/2019 22:26

Lenny - yes
Leonard - no
It's the name of Jill Archers dull boyfriend in the Archers.

misspiggy19 · 21/10/2019 22:28

Boring and dull.

My children are obsessed with Big Bang Theory so that's my first association.

Tigger001 · 21/10/2019 22:37

Another one for making me think of big bang. It's an ok name, I do think of it as being a bit nerdy but again I think that's just the big bang connection

TheQueens · 21/10/2019 22:38

Not sure I'm keen but my SS has a 'Lennon' in his class. I quite like that Smile

user1493494961 · 21/10/2019 22:40

Not keen, like Leo.

BackforGood · 21/10/2019 22:40

To me it's an 'old man name'.

So it fits in really well with all the Stans, Alfies, Reggies that are around. In that context, I quite like it, though wouldn't be my choice, as any names of that 'era' are.

PestoCoffinisto · 21/10/2019 22:40

I prefer Leopard

Lavenderblues · 21/10/2019 22:59

I prefer Lennard

Leonard can be pronounced as Leo nard

GlacindaTheTroll · 21/10/2019 23:02

TBBT

(And the character disliked it because he was the nerd who even had 'nerd' as part of his name)

Astronica · 21/10/2019 23:08

It's okay - nothing wrong with it just not a particular favourite of mine.

DramaAlpaca · 21/10/2019 23:09

Dreadful

Miljah · 21/10/2019 23:12

I like it. It's a real name.

Aprillygirl · 21/10/2019 23:26

Hate it and Lenny is even worse.

HalfManHalfLabrador · 22/10/2019 00:45

Terrible

EileenAlanna · 22/10/2019 02:26

Love it.

Jossina · 22/10/2019 05:01

Fine. Makes me think of Grantchester.

AlwaysCheddar · 22/10/2019 05:46

Yuk

custardbear · 22/10/2019 06:12

Sorry, fuddy duddy- mind you I really don't like any old person style name so perhaps I'm the worst person to comment

BillywilliamV · 22/10/2019 06:18

Makes me think of Lizard!
