Sherlockconfirmed that Lestrade ’s first name is Greg , and Sherlock did call him by his actual name at some breaker point .
InEnola Holmes 2 , Cavill ’s Sherlock does the same with this world ’s variant of Lestrade . In the panorama where Lestrade visits Sherlock at his flat at 221 Baker Street , he enquire the detective if he can call him “ Sherlock ” , and the police detective remains quiet .

Lestrade ” , and his name is never revealed .
