HelpLancelot
Do you think Lancelot is a usable name nowadays?

I think it's a bit much. However I prefer it to some of the new made up names that look like they were picked from a random spoon of alphabet soup. I like that it has the backup name Lance he could go by should he find his name too heavy.

No. The only Lancelot I know is a cat.

I'm going with no (although I did know a kid with that name a few years ago). Lance is perfectly usable IMO.

It's very pretentious.

I like it, but I feel like it would warrant some teasing. It'd be nice to see it come back, though.

I think Lance is usable because my daughter's first little boyfriend, when she was 12, was named Lance. But not Lancelot. It's OTT.
And to me it has a slightly comical air, because I always think of the "I Love Lucy" episode in which Lucy writes an operetta, and Ricky is forced to sing the words, "I am the good Prince Lancelot, I like to sing and dance a lot."

His...name...is Lancelot!
And in tight pants a lot!
He likes to dance a lot!
You know you do!
Anyway...no, it's not usable.

As my childhood friend used to say when two people said the same thing at the same time, "Jinx owes me a Coke."
Don't ask, she's the only person I've heard say it.

The little song I was quoting was from the musical Spamalot.
I agree that the name has a comical vibe.

Yes!!
Hi !!!
Yes!
Why not?
I think that Lancelot has a very fascinating sound.
Its hitory is long and has a lovely Medieval vibe.
If we still use Tristan and Arthur or Gavin...why not Lancelot :)
I like this name very much both in the English and French pronounciations.
I rate it 8/10 (with 10 = the best).
I hope it will be newly considered as good name!
