I quite like it. I like unisex names.

Not keen. The only Blake's I've met have been male.

Great 'advice TRexing have you posted that on all of the baby name threads?

It's an improvement on Riley for a girl, and the two 'go' together. I wouldn't pick it personally though. If you like it, you probably should try to give much less of a toss what other people think.

Love it.

I usually detest surnames as first names (sorry to be harsh) but Blake is one of the only exceptions to the rule for me... Prefer it for a boy but ok for a girl too (probably because of the Blake Lively connection).
