What does everyone think of Leland? I think it has a nice sound and is cute in an old fashioned sort of way.

It could be cute, but I'm wary of names that have "land" in them. Seems easy to make fun of.

Sounds like a car, perhaps a suburban fake SUV.

I agree with you and would like this name more if I didn't associate it so much to Leland Palmer from Twin Peaks...

I like it! I don't even think it feels that old-fashioned. It's very basebally. I knew a Leland when I was a teenager (he around same age), but have never met another.

I like it. It seems old fashioned but modern at the same time. I think it'd be cute on a kid, handsome on a man. It's uncommon but not so off the wall that it'll get weird looks.

Not a fan... I'm not sure why as I don't mind Lee, but something about Leland just sounds really dorky to me.
