Not a fan of punny names.

I love Olympia Lightning Bolt. I mean, he just had to. Just the fact that his last name is Bolt and he's a record breaking sprinter is mind-blowing and I think if he didn't push it, he'd have wasted it. So this one I love.Thunder Bolt seems a bit derivative with Olympia Lightning already there. It's still kinda cool, though. Would have been way cooler if he didn't have a twin with a non-electrical discharge related name. Saint Leo, I don't like, I just dislike Saint as a first name. However, as this is his middle name, I'm willing to consider that there may be some more meaning to it, like it may be important to his family, so I'm not too mad about it.

I like Leo and Olympia.

I'll admit I liked Olympia Lightning's name. I thought it was beautiful but also appropriate, since he was an Olympian and, I mean, with a last name like Bolt, why not use Lightning. I thought it was a good name and the "punny" Lightning was nice in the middle. I loved Olympia.But Saint Leo Bolt and Thunder Bolt have ruined it. It's not cute or clever anymore. Saint Bolt is just silly, not clever. And it might have been ok if Thunder had a different first name but even then....it's been done.

Didn't he have Olympia just a few months ago?Olympia is cool. The Lightning Bolt thing is a bit silly.Leo Bolt is fine Thunder Bolt is a bit dumb. It's like he's trying to ridicule them on purpose. I mean can you imagine your full name being read at your high school graduation? "Thunder Bolt" "Olympia Lightning Bolt". In theory it might seem cool but it would be so embarrassing in real life especially if you were a shy and more serious person who didn't like attention.I wish he had chosen names with a connection to the sky, stars or universe instead e.g. Lyra or Stella.

If you want to be clever and "punny" - create a nickname for yourself or adopt a new pet.

I agree. Someone I work with the last name Jones named his daughter Indiana. I just know that joke is going to get old fast.

I agree. I am all for unusual names but this is a bit ridiculous. It makes it worse that it's his name (nickname) because it makes him seem vain (I have no idea who he is because I hate watching sports with very few exceptions but I got that from the other replies).

Very...Greek. I’m afraid not exactly in a good way.Olympia is nice. Quite underrated as a name. Leo is good. Saint is too religious and Kardashian-esque. I don’t even wanna get started on Thunder Bolt.

I don't hate them...I like this guy for some reason. And I don't even care about his sport. Or any sport. He just amuses me. I think he has a sense of humor about himself. With a surname like Bolt, and given his career, what's a guy to do? And aside from Thunder, the other two have more "regular" names to fall back on. I've honestly seen much worse celebrity names.

St Leo is his SN and "Lightning Bolt" - his NN. So, yeah... It's all about him and his career. Which is ok, I guess.
Well, Leo and Olympia are pretty, and Thunder is not that bad, IMO, it reminds me of Xander and sounds quite namey.

Saint Leo is the odd kid out. Olympia is OK; over-ambitious for most mortals, but fine for Usain; Lightning and Thunder reveal either a good sense of humour or none at all. Saint Leo just puzzles me.

With a head swollen up like that, if he just runs fast enough and catches the wind, he'll probably lift right off and fly.
Thunder Bolt? Lightning Bolt? Puns equal P U.
