This name really needs that final 'e.' Without it, it's just the word blanch which means to scald with boiling water (in cooking) or to whiten up a vegetable, such as celery, by keeping it in the dark. Physiologically, if your gum tissue appears white and bloodless due to disease, it's blanched. Not a pretty name at all. Blanche is much more attractive.
