This morning I met a 1-yr-old girl with the name Blakely (not entirely sure how she spelled it). Her last name sounded very, very similar--it began with a B and was two syllables. What do you think? Also, her brother was named Brantley--Blakely and Brantley. I thought they were really similar for siblings.

They are similar for sibings and they both sound like boys names. So I'm not really a fan.

I love Blake for a boy. I'm kinda liking Blakely for a girl. But Brantley is terrible. And they are way too close for me.

NMS at all. I think it sounds like the name of a breakfast cereal.

Brantley isn't soooo bad. But Blakely is awful.

Lucky for us we live in a country where it's pretty easy to legally change our names.
