Message: "Blakesley" - Behind the Name

[Opinions] Blakesley

I'm sure this has been discussed already, but I just saw a magazine with ex-Bachelorette Trista Sutter and her new baby on the cover - little girl Blakesley.

I'm all for creative naming, but the name "Blakesley" just looks and sounds awkward. And looks very out of place next to brother Max. I didn't read the article so I have no idea why they picked it or what the middle name is - can anyone enlighten me??

I love this name! It's so cute!

Her middle name is Grace and Trista said it was a family name.

Ryan (her husband) liked Grace and they were calling her Gracie then they decided to stick with Blakesley.

I like Blakesley.

Search next time.

It's a family surname from what we've heard.

Thanks for the helpful tip

I did do a search, and this is what I got: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3552170&board=baby

Pardon me for bringing up "old news"; a girl sure misses a lot of action on this board while she's busy living life I guess.

Here's the original thread: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/arcview.php?id=3520811&board=baby. No clue why it didn't come up in your search. Never mind about the "old news", though. Happens to the best. ;D

About why it didn't appear on the search

I think she forgot to set the search settings to "All Posts" rather than "Current Posts". The latter only brings up posts still viewable on the actual board page. By now, the "original thread" has fallen into the archives, so it will only appear if you search "All Posts".
