So, new idea. After watching an American history mystery movie last night (National Treasure), my mom mentioned this being a cute combo for a boy: Parkington Lane nn Park after a place of significance in the movie.

Thoughts?

It just sounds like the name of a road to me, as in 'I live at number 4 Parkington Lane.' I can't imagine it as the name of a child, sorry.

While I like both Park/Parks for a boys name and Lane usually works well in the middle name spot, together it is too much of a street name.

I agree with what a few people have already said: it sounds too much like a street name to work as a person's name. I'll admit that it does have a nice sound to it, but it would be hard to live with. I'd keep it as a GP.

Especially with "Park" and "Lane" all in one name, all I think of is cars.

Thanks guys. Yeah, everything you said made sense. I never truly digged it, but I was surprised my mom liked it so much. Lol.
