QuoteDue to the influence of the classic name Claire, when I hear Blair I immediately think the bearer is female. But I still don't think I'd ever use it. For me, Blair is one of those names where I love the idea so much more than the reality - it looks really classy and sophisticated when written out, but once I hear it I think of car horns or sirens "blaring." It could make a really nice middle name, though.
My comment on the page for the name itself, and I stand by it.As for similar names... well, besides Claire / Clara, how about:Adria
Alida
Elaine
Hera
Iris
Ivy
Jane
Leah
Zelda

ClaireI love Claire, simple, lovely and classic. But its long popularity has made it very common. I know a 50 yr old, 30 yr old, and little girls named Claire. I love it, but don't want to use something so common. I am also avoiding C names.I suppose that is exactly what I was thinking . Blair is similar to Claire... but I guess I have only heard of Blair used as masculine.I like these but doubt my husband would.
