Honestly I love this name but I see a lot of negative comments about it on this board. Does it remind you of someone that you don't like? Does the name have some sort of connotation to it?
I really like it, but it does conjure up kind of an annoying guy- attractive but really self-centered. ?My husband and I agreed that we liked the name but it is too bad that it reminds us of guys we don't like.
I would totally support someone else naming their kid Blake, we just had too many people we didn't like with that name.?
I like Blake... as a matter of fact its on our list. It's DHs top pick, my only issue is that it seems a little unfinished...you know it needs a "son" or "ly" or "en" at the end.... but that just doesnt work! LOL
I like the name Blake- a lot. If you and DH love it, go for it! My friend from high school who I have a lot of respect for is named Blake so I only have good connotations with it...

I don't have problem with the name. I think Blake Lively has caused some people to think of it as a unisex name, though.
Unfortunately me too. I totally think of that old dude.
I like it. I only know one Blake and he's 7y.o.
Same
