Yeah I thought it'd be great when he is 7 ImSoVeryTired

I like the name though OP, Blake Carrington from Dynasty was very distinguished.

My nephew is Blake - we were sceptical when we heard that was the name planned for him tbh but it suits him perfectly and doesn't seem strange at all. He's 8 now and it's still unusual without being too out there. Agree with pp that it transcends classes. If you like it, go for it.

not a fan sorry, bit rough around the edges..

I quite like it (for a boy) and think it goes well with Jude.

Reminds me of 80s American programme, Dynasty!

Like Blakeley though...

It's quite nice, transcends the classes I think.
