After some thinking I mentioned the name Blair(e) to Martin despite that it would be alliterative figuring he'd toss it aside since he watches/watched an anime with a very promiscuous (not exactly the right word but hey) character with the name. After making a joke in reference to the character he said he liked it better than Lilith and Milena.
So is the alliteration too much? And which spelling do you prefer?

I like the name Blair (only this spelling), but I don't like the flow of Blair Baker. Sorry. :(

Its not for everyone and it honestly isn't my favorite either but I can live with it since most of the time she would (hopefully) just be Blair to people around her and Martin seems to love it. Which, if it gets him away from Lilith I'm okay with*.

*Not that I don't like Lilith its just feeling a little bleh lately.

I much prefer it over the other two. I like the way Blaire / Blair Baker sounds.

I love the name Blair! I could see how it it a little repetitive since they both start and end with the same letters, but I don't think it sounds horrible. I definitely prefer it over Lilith

Thanks guys. I love it more and more but I need middles. The only possible combo I have is Blaire Summer.

Got a new combo from Martin that he loves and I'm honestly rather impressed.
Blaire Hycinthia Baker. I know its supposed to be spelled Hacinthia but we both kind of like it with the "y" better. I'm breaking my own rules by replacing the "a" with a "y". Is that too horrible a thing or since its just one letter in a middle name is it okay?

I like Blaire with this spelling; it looks more feminine. While I don't like the alliteration with the surname Baker, I do like the combo Blaire Summer. Other ideas:

Blaire Evangeline
Blaire Cassandra
Blaire Scarlett
Blaire Charlotte
Blaire Dorothy
Blaire Amelia
Blaire Estelle
Blaire Gwyneth
Blaire Virginia
Blaire Josephine
Blaire Elizabeth
Blaire Cecilia
Blaire Celeste

I love Blaire Charlotte!!!! I'll mention it to Martin next time. I'm going to continue to be impressed with his surprisingly grown up taste atm.

I think Blair Baker sounds like a movie star's name! :wub:
....BUT I might be blasphemous and say I like Lilith more. I think they'd make a pretty good sibset.

Lilith & Blair Baker

Have you considered Lillian?

Lillian Baker.

Both Lilith and Lillian have the gorgeous nickname Lily.

I like Lilian but its a name of Martin's cousin that he's close to so he says it weird. Maybe he'll come around.

Hopefully. Its hard finding a name that I could actually picture using on a child. Martin suggested Arthur the other day. I don't think we'll ever have an Arthur.
