Girl's First Name

katester04 · December 2010

DH and I have chosen a middle name for the baby (it's both my mom and grandma's middle name), but equally like two different first names. I'm not leaning one way or another yet, and I know I have time but wanted to see what everyone else thought! I also posted this on April 2011 board! So what do you think?

Blake Leigh Ann

Makenna Leigh Ann

Makenna. To me, Blake is a boy's name.

To be perfectly honest, IMHO... neither. Blake is quite masculine and Makenna is uber trendy.

But it's your LO and if you love it, go for it.

I really dislike Makenna (it is SO insanely trendy right now) and Blake is a boy's name.

MaddysMama07 · December 2010

Honestly, I don't like either. If I had to choose I'd pick Mackenna. There are some boy names I like for girls but Blake is not one of them.

I like Makenna, thought I've also seen it spelled McKenna.

Makenna is fine but please don't name your sweet baby girl Blake. Blake is a super cute boy's name.

Makenna gets my vote

1medicwife · December 2010

My vote is Makenna!

I have a girl cousin named Blake. I'm not one for boy's names on girl's, but Blake really fits her! Just saying...

MapleBean · December 2010

Makenna all the way. Brooke might be an alternative to Blake?

I agree!

alliejo725 · December 2010

Gun to my head? Makenna. At least it's (kind of) a girl's name. Blake would be terrible for a girl.

Me too

HarperM · December 2010

I'm the complete opposite- I really like Blake for a girl. But I also like names that are a bit different but not too crazy. Love Blake.

Makenna on the other hand..... Over done. A few years ago when the whole trend of MacKenna, MacKenzie, Makayla, Makaylie happend... its just been waaay too over done for me!

alohamora · December 2010

Neither, sorry.

katester04 · December 2010

Thanks for the input!

BabyNSR · December 2010

I actually really like Blake for a girl, but probably because I like Blake Lively. Makenna is just eh for me.

BetchySprout · December 2010

I know a girl named Blakely, I think it is legit, ever consider it? I don't like Blake at all (boy or girl) but Blakely fit the girl I know pretty well.

I was going to suggest the same thing.
