These are the 'favorites' currently on our list. I want to make sure we're not missing anything and our child is hung to be made fun of his/her entire life. Do any of these stand out as terrible? FYI... Last name is 2 syllables starting with W.

 Girl 
Adelaide Blake (family name) or Grace 
Isabel Marie 
Lillian Blake or Grace 

 Boy 
Leighton James 
Zachary Allen 
Dillon Robert

Re: Help me find the problems with these names

  • Nice list. My favorites are Isabel Marie and Zachary Allen. Leighton James I love but every Leighton I know is a girl.

  • Nothing sticks out as "bad", I mean Blake is obviously a boy name but if it's in the middle name spot, I don't see it as much of an issue. I like all your first name options, especially Adelaide, Lillian and Zachary. I don't mind Leighton, although the only boy I know of with this name is spelled Lleyton (tennis player?). Leighton makes me think more of Leighton Meister

    Interesting because I have only seen Leighton as a boys name. I looked up Leighton Meester, because I didn't know who that was... Go figure, a female. I think we may have to rethink the name because we don't really want anything unisex.
  • Nothing wrong with them the only one I don't like is leighton.
  • Only leighton I know is a girl.
  • Leighton is pretty awful all the rest are ok
  • Leighton is all girl to me
  • The only thing I don't like is Blake on a girl, even in the middle spot.

  • I love Blake for a girl...reminds me of Blake Lively who is absolutely gorgeous. If I was having a girl, that would've been a top contender.
  • My grandmothers name is Blake... That's why we want to use it as a middle name for a girl. Thank you everyone for your input. Sometimes it's easy to fall in love with names which makes it hard to see the negatives.
  • My sons name is Leighton, when we chose his name I had never heard of Leighton Meester before. We get nothing but compliments but who knows could just be being nice lol. But we love it and it fits him perfectly. We've only met 1 other Leighton and it was a boy.
  • Love Blake as a middle name for a girl. My name is Blakely, so I've always considered using Blake for a girls middle name as well. 

    The only one I would be concerned about is Leighton. It's kind of hard to say. I feel like a lot of people will jumble the two syllables together- Layt'n. With names like that, I also hear people drop the T when they say them fast- Lay'n. I've always liked the name Peyton but have chosen against it for that very reason.

  • All the names are great--I'd go with Adelaide Blake and Zachary Allen.
