Am I the only person who remembers the girl called Lettice on America’s Got Talent way back? I think it sounds nice, to be honest. But for obvious reasons I’m not giving this name.
Lettice (le-tees) this is my name and it was my gran's name too. I love my name even though I don't ever use it (it's a little girly for me as I am everything but girly) so I've always been called Tessa... I must admit I did go through the whole Lettice - Lettuce thing in school (mostly high school really) but you know what, who cares.
Lettuce and Tomatoes were my least favorite toppings on burgers, but I’ll get used to it. Anyway, it’s kinda silly to name your kids after food. It makes it sound like you want to eat them.

Salad or not, I think it's a cute name. Though definitely not for today's use, haha. I can't help but imagine a part of her (surname, father?) being called Caesar. Kind of mean-spirited, but..

They named her Lettice, because she had a big head.
Lettice is my name. My parents pronounced it Le-TEES, like the eyelash enhancer. Before that product came along, I was definitely called Lettuce a lot. It was popular in the Victorian era, as I understand it.
I've developed quite an affection for this name in recent years. If you can get over the homophonous leaf vegetable, you're left with quite a pretty, charming and dainty name for a little girl. Probably not so great for a real child though, as it is usually met with too much negativity; but on a fictional character, it could work really well!
I know a Lettice and prior to meeting her would have thought about the same as the majority, that this is a food!She is most lovely though, so regal. A real English rose. Beautiful young women who carries the name well. Her unique name and she are alike. They compliment each other! Maybe her name makes her who she is and how I perceive her. I just don't know! Cool name anyway!
