Blake is the name of my seven year old son. I chose it because I felt it was different, but still masculine and n't too trendy. Even'though the name has become more popular, he is still the only Blake in his class.

I am considering naming my first child Blake if it’s a boy or girl. I never knew of a boy named Blake until the Am. Idol Blake Lewis, but I grew up knowing an absolutely gorgeous, sweet and intelligent girl named Blake. She was (and prob. still is) the perfect all American girl.

My name is Blake Whittin'ton. My dad named me after the character on'the TV show Dyn'tsy, Blake Carrin'ton. He thought that the name'sounded very stately and important. I am now 16, and I beli've that my dad was right, because I feel very confident about my name.

My maiden name is Blake and since there was nobody to pass on the last name I really wanted to pass it on to my children. I had Blake picked for either a boy or a girl. My fathers name is Allena so it was Blake Allen for a boy and my sisters name is Alexis so it was Blayke Alexis for a girl. I added the "y" because my name Seydi (sadie) is spelled uniquely. people are always assuming she is a boy even dressed fully in pink! But i LOVE her name and that her full name means so much. Blayke after me Alexis after my sister and mine and my husbands last name!
