Lyle and Tector Gorch? Wait a minute...

Is it just me or are Lyle and Tector named after characters from "The
Wild Bunch"?

There is also

William Holden (Pike Bishop)
Jaime Sanchez (Angel)

I think maybe Joss is a fan of The Wild Bunch.

If you've ever seen the Rutger Hauer movie "Blind Fury", there is also
a resemblance to two brothers also named Lyle and Tector. Their last
name was Pike.

Yep. And so is Angel. And Pike - in the movie.

Could be. There's also the reference from WTTH:

Buffy: "Don't go all Wild Bunch on me."

There's even one of the trading cards that includes not only the line, but an
explanation that The Wild Bunch was "the first film to feature excessive
violence". (I haven't seen the movie, so I found that tidbit helpful. :)
