Also I am from the American South and I have met people named Lemmy in my life. (I'm older and they were older than me but still.) The one that sticks out in my memory had no teeth from obvious meth use, skin more leathered by cigarette smoke and alcohol than the sun, and tended to wear a leather vest with no shirt.
If you're imagining someone that was not cool, you would be correct.
So again, definitely not helping. Made me take a couple extra months after hearing about it before even researching it, because "oh, ew, it's called Lemmy?"
