Which do you prefer? Big sister is Olivia.

If neither, don't bother commenting. It's taken us too long to get to these 2!

I prefer Taylor, but I don't think many people see it as being unisex anymore. I still think it's acceptable for a boy, but accept that I'm likely in the minority.

I don't like Blake. It was a very common name here in Australia in the 80s and 90s, so seems outdated.

Prefer Taylor but to me it's a girls name.

Blake is lovely

Another vote for Blake!

I love Blake, it's one of my faves.

Another vote for Blake - I think Taylor Swift has swayed that name to the girls! Blake sounds cool

Defiantly Blake

I know a boy/girl sibling pair called Blake and Olivia. I think it goes well. So, yup, Blake Smile

Definitely Blake.

Blake!

I think of Blake as a surname e.g. Quentin Blake.

I'd choose Taylor.

DramaAlpaca · 09/12/2016 21:26

Blake, definitely. My DS has a friend called Blake & it really suits a cool teenager.

Blake, my dd has a friend called Blake but she's a girl, much nicer for a boy, don't like Taylor as too much like a surname

Blake feels stronger and more interesting. In my head Taylor's are kinda jock like.

SausageSoda · 09/12/2016 18:01

Blake.

SaltyBitch · 09/12/2016 14:40

Definitely Blake then!
