I was talking to my sister about different names yesterday and she reminded me of a friend of hers names Cleve. I hated it when I was younger but it could grow on me. My sister is 60 so this must be an old name. Also I really like the name Leland. What do you think? My daughters Soccer coach is Lawrence. Not bad for a MN maybe.
I just looked up Cleve and it could be used as a mn for Cleveland which I don't like at all. What do you think?

Cleve wouldn't be my style, but is similar as in saying with Eve, i would think of Cleve as a boy name since is similar to Clive or Clyde (which i've known my grandparents men friend's names to be.)
for Lawrence, is rather common now, especially for mn, but i love the thought of nn *Lance* for Lawrence.. of course, traditonal is Larry or Lenny (NMS), Lane could be a possibility, tho i'd see Lane as a girl's name.
aslo is, Lark, Lake, Ace, Reese, Lawson, Lars, ...
(oh and Laurence is common spelling also)

I would have to say no to Cleve. Its just too harsh for my tastes. And Leland reminds me of the show "Twin Peaks". But Im sure thats just a quirky association that I have. I think it could be a cute name. I like Lawrence, and like a pp said, lots of nn possibilities with it.
