Name that tree

I think this is a sycamore, yes?? Just that the leaves look a little different from pics on internet

No, it's an American Sweetgum, Liquidambar styraciflua.

And I'd call it Desmond.

Really? there are tons of them here. And huge. TY for info. Cept they don't look like the shape of any sweetgum I see in pictures. Mine are very tall but thin and the leaves don't start as close to the ground like in pictures I see. Plus 7 points on the leaves. But if you say so. But what is Desmond ??

Why Desmond ??

The name just came to me. Sometimes I just go with whatever pops into my head. If you prefer something a little more 'Joisey" use that.
