You never meet Lees much older or younger. It’s a very exclusive name.
My mate called his son Lee because he wanted to give him a name he could spell. True story.
I was always scared of kids called Lee. They were always a bit tasty, in my experience (and I'm from Telford, where Lee was the name you came with).
