I am having a hard time choosing a boy's name this time. I like old fashioned names that are not super common but not out there either. I been really digging Lyle recently and I am considering this name. I wanted to see if it had a strong negative reaction.

I think it's a fine name, but so do a lot of other people. Its popularity is growing, so your son may not be the only Lyle in his circle.

It's fine. Kind of hip. But classic, too. Plus, Lyle the crocodile in the house on East 88th Street!

Only connection I can think of is to Lyle Lovett and thats not a bad connection at all.

Its a nice name, very classic but not trendy.

I have a strongly negative visceral reaction to the name Lyle. I don't know why.

I like Kyle just fine... but Lyle strikes me as a smarmy middle-aged man. I'm showing my age, but when I hear Lyle I think of Lyle Waggoner... a smarmy, middle-aged man.

I'm not crazy about it, but I'm also not American. I think that makes a difference.
