[Opinions] Lionel & Haywood
What do you think of these two old man names?What would you think if you met a young brother set with these names? Would you think they were bad?Thanks. :) **Starfish and coffee, maple syrup and jam/Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine, and a side order of ham**

Lionel is okay, but I would never use it. Haywood sounds like the name of a horse.

Nice names. They sound like they would be siblings from Southeast US. They also sound like siblings who would be in a movie getting up to no good. I feel like they could own a microbrewery.

Lionel RitchieKind of an interesting pair. I can't hear Lionel and not think of Lionel Ritchie. That's not a bad thing. But it's automatic.

Same here. That's what comes to mind whenever I stumble across Lionel as well.

I love Haywood because one of the first internet things I ever laughed at as a youth in the cretaceous era was a picture of a newspaper announcement of a normal name changing his name to Haywood Jablowme. "Haywood Jablowme" still pops up in my head fairly frequently and makes me giggle.Um I actually like both of these pretty well. Lionel is a fine old name, I like all the letters in it. Haywood is just kind of interesting because they are not-unfashionable sounds (maybe wood is?) but you don't really hear them much, I think it would be distinct and nice.I'd think the parents were quirky and very deliberate in their choices. A very specific kind of hipster - rural-leaning, but possibly overeducated lol.
