He’s probably the same way at McDonald’s.

The thing about his girls is that they both have the initials "JLE" like their father. Both have fully English names even though they are living in and are going to school in Croatia. Croatian is actually their dominant language and only speak English when their father is around.
So... not a thought on honouring their Croatian heritage and giving them a name in their own language? For someone who is always virtue signaling that he's an egalitarian and supports the empowerment of women, it seems that their children's names do not reflect anything related to their mother. It's a common thing in Western society to name a child with elements from both parent's backgrounds.
Jessica has the middle name of "Liberty" and this was stated at the time to represent both parents' freedom from leaving the Jehovah's Witnesses. Since "Liberty" is not a name, this stands out. These names stick with them their entire lives. Did he really think of when Jessica got older and asked about her middle name, she'd have to relate that before she was even born, both her parents disassociated from Jehovah's Witnesses and this is why she is named that way? Shouldn't he want to keep the girls away from anything relating to their parents' JW past?
Julia's middle name is after Lloyd's mum Lesley. This is fine and appropriate as this is a family name of someone who was so influential to their father, so I know he understands the importance of doing so. It's just that there is nothing in their names that connect those two girls to their mother and her side of the family. They even got his initials.

So what exactly was the problem?
There's a bit of background as to why he was so keen on his daughter's musical talent. In short, he believes he's a talented musician and vocalist and his daughter has inherited this immense talent. He's sometimes referred to himself as a "singer/songwriter". Here's a post of his from exJW Reddit some years ago in response to a question as to whether there were any exJW musicians out there:
In case the screenshot is fuzzy, here's the copy/paste from it:
Some people say that I am an amazing vocalist. I have at least one fan of my singing in the Scottish highlands. I can also play the guitar, drums, and harmonica. Last year I wrote the hit song "Good Things, Bad Things," which proved so successful I was asked to play it in a warehouse in Belgium with other people present.
So much to dissect from those relatively few sentences. First he attributes his "amazing vocalist" compliments to unspecified others so as to not look like he's bragging. Then there's at least "one fan" of his in a remote section of Scotland! After specifying which instruments he can play, he describes the song he put out of YouTube as a "hit song" and successful. So much so that he played it in a warehouse in Belgium!
His vocals are BAD. His pitch is mediocre at best and his nasal drawl permeates the entire song. Listen for yourself if you dare. "Good Things, Bad Things" and "We Are The Slave" are still available on his YT channel.

Pruner can I ask you if that was a tweet or he said that on youtube?

He thought he was being edgy and cool by seeing sex workers.
I think that’s precisely it. If you read his book he leans heavily into this narrative that all these women wanted him so badly but he had declined because he was a JW. For example there was a classmate in art school he got locked into a closet with during a party and he meticulously described her vibe as one which was expecting Lloyd to ravish her right there. There was Tracey who had ink all over her hands and asked him to adjust her bra strap which he declined to do. There was this American student who was ready to come to his dad’s house for sex whilst his dad was away but at the last minute he turned her down.
So he was ashamed of his “virgin MTS grad” status and the only immediate way out was to marry the first JW woman who would have him. Being a pioneer sister from a poorer country, he thought he could dominate her and make her dependent upon him, which is something which continues even to this day.
Like a lot of adolescents, he was obsessed with “numbers”, i.e. number of women he had slept with. He resented the fact that he could count his sexual conquests on one finger and began to take out his frustration on his wife by asking her to do things a JW considered perverted.
He became an exJW celebrity in the middle of the last decade. Crowds as large as 50 to 75 people were all waiting to meet him and all he needed to do was tweet out that he was coming to a certain area. It all went to his head. He saw a few adoring faces in the crowd, many of them female, and felt how wonderful it would feel to seduce a few.
So he started cultivating an image of an exJW “degenerate” or rebel. He’s open about his penchant for hard alcohol and cigars, and more recently his extensive use of cannabis. By the time he had revealed the extent of his dalliances with sex workers to Kim and Bob, he thought it made him look cool. There he was in Thailand, higher than fuck on edibles and throwing money at prostitutes.
His ultimate goal was to drive his wife’s self esteem so low as to accept an open marriage as the only way to keep him happy as a husband. He’d have ongoing dalliances with women he met on his activist trips like he was a playboy prince.
Now he’s singing karaoke at a Zagreb expat bar. And he absolutely hates what he’s been reduced to.

Poor woman to be linked with LE online. Whatever he paid, it wasn’t enough.
Since they were "dating", she was well compensated by the food and drinks Lloyd's generous Patrons have funded. And of course, she was regaled by tales from an exotic land across the sea and how this noble man was saving lives by fighting 7 evil men in New York.
They undoubtedly spoke of their possible future together, and how Lloyd would hire her as the housekeeper for his planned Istrian estate.
And if she ran into a woman with two young girls, they were the family of a friend he was helping out. Such a generous man! They will be leaving shortly on a visit to Nana and Papa's home in Sisak. Never mind them. In fact, don't speak to or approach them at all.
Romantic Bliss. This Gallant man. Fine bloke. This, James Lloyd Evanston

he's asking the court to deal with crimes
But they are not crimes. If I am reading him right, people are saying he saw prostitutes in Thailand. He says he dated one and that those allegations are lies. He also said things that he now denies. LE has no credibility and any case of his that goes before a judge, be it in Croatia, the UK, US or Australia, it is going to demonstrate just that.
Given how long this has gone on and his exaggerated to downright bizarre claims about people defaming him, I'd actually welcome this going to trial just so there is a ruling that adjudicates that his testimony was false and contradictory to earlier statements.

the Atheist community support withdrawal is another blow that is going to cause repercussions.
How do we know this? pr0ner said something about this too. Has anyone publicly disavowed him?
original reddit post (removed).
And he also alienated people who were on his side because he demands unconditional support. So, when he finally stumbled badly, he lacked a support network- the people who could have helped him were on the other side of all of those burned bridges.
Even after Kim's Reddit post, he made a series of unforced errors which sealed his fate. It stemmed from the fact that he has always gotten cover from the community on all his previous scandals. His livestream was a manifestation of this belief and he wanted the matter settled by the end of day with Kim being labelled a hater and anyone supporting her being shouted down by his goon squad. But it lingered for a week or so with many prominent ones holding their opinion and initially supporting his request for privacy.
Lloyd had always expected those on his left flank to protect him with their own progressive views on sexuality. So he felt betrayed when Mentally Diseased started his own Twitter thread lambasting Lloyd and his behaviour. altworldly soon followed suit, and Lloyd described it as a "stab in the back". It went downhill from there imo.
The Gold interview was another miscalculation. This time he appealed to the right as Andrew was a known critic of cancel culture which Lloyd now felt he was a victim of. To his astonishment, hardly anyone showed for the livechat in Lloyd's defence. Gold saw this and had to do a followup with Kim, that's how bad of a miscalculation this was.
So he's always counting on people who supported him in the past to automatically back him no matter what he did.
I can't stress enough how bad of an idea the litigation was. To file it and continually threaten and taunt those who were the targets, you'd better be sure on a decisive outcome in your favour. It is clear by now that this is not happening. Instead of people being scared of speaking out against him, they have been emboldened to do so. Not only this, but for a Patreon creator to *already* have manifested doubts about what the money was going towards, this muddled it even further. Patrons who might still be supportive now have to contend with the thought that their donations are funding vanity lawsuits which are frivolous and a complete waste of their money. To make that situation worse, he is now on record that he will pursue this for the next 40 years of his life until he gets the result he wants.
A successful performer like a stand up comedian or entertainer needs to be able to read the crowd. He has misread it from the very beginning and instead of cutting his gig short and refining his material, he just doubles-down on the same old stuff that didn't work. After 8 months of this conflict, he's effectively cut off all possible lines of retreat on this issue. The litigation will make or break him. And that is such a foolish basket to placing all your eggs into.
The party's over, folks. He's just too deluded to notice.
