As a male with this name, it took years to grow into. However, it is a great strong name, being 9 of 10 kids. My name has given me a strong sense of self-worth, not arrogance. I love that I have a legal name for documents, but a shortened nickname Lee.

Leland is not really my style, as I like very few surname names, and I'm not crazy about this one, but still like it a bit. To me, it conjures up an image of someone rather elderly but I can see it feeling as a very trendy name to many people because the L sound is so trendy, as are surname names in general. I like a lot of L names but this one is a little too much with two L's being so close and makes for a bit lispy impression. So it's definitely not my cup of tea, as I said, and has its downsides, but it is decent and I can't say I seriously dislike it. It's an okay name.

This name would be better without the 'd' at the end. Leland just sounds so old-fashioned. After watching Twin Peaks in 2007, I just couldn't imagine using this name or even Lelan, as it would remind me of the creepy Leland Palmer.
