Quintessence? Wow they went too hard on this one. What was wrong with LF1 in the first place? I doubt this will have more than two engines in so branding it as LF1 and LF1h is common sense. If they ever come out with F variant just name it LF1-F. Even LFX is not a bad idea cause it ties in with LX.
LQ is so generic for a flagship. LS makes sense since is the original. LC is a wrong nameplate as well, I would have preferred SC since it's another original but LFC would have been better choice than plain LC.
Here is a little secret when it comes to design principles which can easily be applied to nomenclature as well. You always do things in odd numbers. 1 piece and 3 pieces are always stronger than 2 or 4 pieces together. Like Lexus Premium LED headlights, what makes them ooze flavor is the odd arrangement of light beams. When it comes to abstract model naming like premium cars are named single character or three characters always sound and look better than two. In Lexus case they do add 3 numbers to determine power unit and price positioning in the line up so it ends up as odd number of mixed characters.
But honestly if it was up to me I would name cars with actual words cause random numbers and letters are so dull and played out. Nothing sounds better than Legend, no amount of S, L, X, Q and other characters combinations can come close to it.
