I can only imagine the kinds of jokes a kid with this name would get.
I think Les is better off as a nickname for Leslie with all the lesbian jokes.

Reminds me of Lesbian. People use Les as a shortening of that word.So with that in mind, HORRIFIC NAME FOR A MALE. ABSOLUTELY A JOKE AND HAS HIGH TEASING POTENTIAL. AWFUL, AWFUL!
I STRONGLY advise you name your kid something else.Camillethegreat: 'Lester' are you kidding?! That name has high teasing potential and if you don't understand, let me help you out.
Put mo/moe in front of it. You get molester!"Hi, my name is Moe Lester."
Seriously...

I actually love this name! It was David's little 9-year-old brother in "Newsies" and he is so adorable in the video! After I saw that I totally fell in love with the name. Chances are, I will name a son Lester nicknamed "Les".
I always think of a T.V. show I saw as a kid where a man was commenting on how our names make us who we are. He then asked a timid, nerdy man what his name was and he answered "Les." In this case, "Les" is not more.
