Lloyd is a very common surname and a quite rare first name over here which is possibly why it doesnt have the same effect on us. Also its part of the banking establishment and you just accept it as as much of an everyday thing as you would say...Macdonalds.
There is also the Lloyds of London insurance market that underwrites most of the worlds insurance policies. I guess that may sound a bit strange too but again its aesthetically normal to us.
