Hello, sorry I haven't been here for a while, been busy and don't have a computer.

Anyway, I have been thinking a lot about the name Blair for a boy. What are your thoughts? Is it too plain? Does it goe with my other childrens' names (Hayley, Skye and Nathan).

Which middle name do you prefer?

Blair Matthew
Blair Daniel
Blair Kristen

Thankyou :)

I'm a big fan of Blair on a boy; I've been liking it a lot lately. I think it fits fine with your other names, and it makes it even- 2 unisex names and 2 that are clearly a girl and a boy.

Blair Daniel is my favorite of your combos.

I think it goes with your kids' names. I like it better for a girl though.

It does go with your other children's names, to my ears anyway. Works well, in fact.

I find Matthew soporifically bland, and I've met a few girl Kristens, so Blair Daniel it is! If it was me, I'd reverse the order and have Daniel Blair, but it isn't me ...

heh. I like it! it's got really personal meaning to me though. It's handsome and bold and really unisex.

I like Daniel the best. Matthew seems like a cop-out and Kristen is just too girly with it. Daniel is so solid and old-new.

I don't care for it. It sounds identical to blare, an unattractive word. And it is so unisex that it just fades into the background.

In the USA, Kristen is exclusively a girls' name, so I would always assume a Blair Kristen is a girl.
