Can We Mention Our Prominent LP's Name to Attract More Investors in This Unique Situation?

We got one new LP that is the most respected name in our niche space. Multiple potential LPs have asked if he endorses us. He would allow us to use his name when fundraising with others. Is that an edge case where we can mention the LP's name to others?

No. First close them (money in the bank). Then, you may ask them for permission to use their name in future closes.
