Blakesley?

a2t

So I read a few weeks ago that Trista (from Bachelorette) named her little girl Blakesley.....eww. Not a fan? Anyone like?

Not a fan. It sounds harsh to me, and it's a bit of an eye-sore.

Nope

Awful.  I was afraid you were thinking about using this name based on the post title!

Sounds like she was reallly set on Blake for a boy, but then had a girl and couldn't part with the name. So she added stuff to it.

Not crazy about it.  I had a student named Blakelee.  I like that better.

I could have handled Blakely although still not a fan but adding the s just totally threw it off for me.

hopefully she will just go by blake!!

I agree. Blakely is a name, even if it's not that great, but Blakesley just sounds totally made up and awful. I've known girls named Blake; I would have just gone with that.

Agreed. With the s, it is just gross. What a mouthful of a name for such a little person!

She just said in a recent article that it was a family name, but I still don't like it.  It sounds too harsh.

I don't like it at all. And it's kinda difficult to pronounce, sort of gets stuck in the mouth.

I don't love it but I have heard worse
