The name could be from almost anywhere, JrMitch. If it's derived from "Balke" it could be English; if it's derived from "Bielke", it could be Slavic. Are you even certain you're spelling the name correctly, or are you just guessing how it's spelt from the way you've heard it pronounced?

Is there a reason why you can't ask this female person named Balkie about her name and where her family may have come from?

She wouldn't, by any chance, be related to this guy, would she?:
