[Opinions] Blake and Peyton
Blake is much better on a boy than a girl, imo. warning: rant - skip this paragraph if you don't want to hear it haha
actually one of my pet peeves is that, if a famous girl has a traditionally boys' name (which was most likely an exciting-to-them deviation on their parents' part) that people just start using it for girls as if it was always a girls' name, and also decide that it should now mostly be a girls' name because it's on a famous person. back to Blake...it's still not my favorite name, even on a boy, however. It makes me think too much of "flake", which isn't an association I'd want, flakiness.But we probably just have different styles, because Peyton isn't my favorite either. That said, I also prefer it on a boy. I think it's still fairly firmly unisex. I know a lot of boy-to-girl names have been pretty much completely appropriated by the girls, but there are still some hold-outs that I feel are definitely unisex, Peyton/Payton being one of them. (I prefer the Payton spelling on a boy, perhaps because many of the girl Peytons I've encountered have used the "e" spelling, maybe to differentiate from the boys. Just a thought)
