As you can tell, I go for names that people have either never heard of, think are weird in general, or say I spelled it wrong. Well, these ARE the names I like and the spellings STAY as is. Thanks for the POSITIVE and ENCOURAGING feedback.~Nicole

Considering Blakely is a name, I’d say go with that. I’ve seen it on a boy and a girl (both teenagers) so I think that’ll work best.

Blakely (Sorry, the extra E looks dumb. No matter if you want it to look like you’re in first grade or not.)

Blakely Elisabeth
Blakely Grace
Blakely Sage
Blakely Zariah
Blakely Anne
Blakely Juliet
Blakely Olivia
Blakely Alexis.

Blakely is lovely for a little girl! I’ve always loved it. I’ve never met anyone with this name. It’s really underused and unique! I think Blakely Carson would be absolutely stunning!!!

Blakeley Elizabeth is definetely the best one! but consider how it would be for your child..she will always have to tell people how to spell her name...anyway that’s you’re choice and this is just my opinion! Good Luck with your baby girl!=)

I love the name Ainsley, and I think the spelling Ainsleigh is actually quite pretty. (I also like Ashley spelled Ashleigh for a girl.) Ainsleigh Grace got my vote.

Name her Blakely, give her a girly middle name and be on with it.

Blakely Elisabeth

Blakely Elizabeth its alwasy nice to put a more feminine name with a unisex name.

Easy for you to say since you have a nice name that everyone can spell and pronounce, Nicole.

Having has a name that is spelled differently from the norm (Liz is my middle name), I will say that many people do not remember how to spell the name even after they’ve been told multiple times. Many people can’t even copy it down right when my name is right in front of them. I have no doubt that all of these names would be spelled incorrectly on a regular basis. Teachers will spell the name right because they know that’s important and will see your child nearly every day, but the rest of the world doesn’t care. Name your child whatever you want, but be aware that your name choice is more than likely going to be an annoyance for her.

I’d have voted for Ainsley if it was spelled that way, even though I find the name whiny and nasally sounding.

Blakeley sounds too much like "blankly" for my comfort and Lindleigh is just awkward.

If you’re decided on Blakeley, go with Elizabeth in the middle. If I saw Blakeley Carson in print, I would assume the person was male. At least with Elizabeth, she can use both names if she wants/needs her gender to be clear.

I agree with the poster above me. My brother spells his name Vinny but even our Grandmother and Great grandparents still spell it wrong. They’ve been told hundreds of times but don’t get it. He’s 10, now. We just added a cousin to the family: Bodhi (pr: Bow-dee) and it’s terrible trying to get them to remember how to spell it.

Bode is how that should be spelled

I don’t understand why people take time out of their day to write negative comments on here, she’s asking for positive feedback and clearly doesn’t care if you don’t like the name or spelling. I think both are beautiful! Love the name Blakeley!
