Comments for BLAIR:

I love this name! I have a friend named Blair, except she spells it with an E, which looks more feminine. It's a strong, unique name.

I think Blair is such an awesome name! My friend's name is Blair (he's a guy) When I think of the name Blair, I think of someone who listens to rock music and is the most opinionated person I know.

Blair is a very nice name. I lean more towards a girl for this name, it is soft and gentle. I like the spelling with the "e" on the end, Blaire. I have also seen it spelt Blayre.

My oldest daughter's middle name is Blaire. I love it and think is is beautiful. Her sister's middle name is Claire. I just don't know of a name that will go for my next daughter, if I have one!

I know one Blair. He's amazing. When I think of the name Blair I think rock 'n' roll and opinionated. Honesty possibly.

I really like this name for a girl!

One of the two main characters names in the gossip girl books is named Blair. She is a smart person, a little sensitive but still very strong.

I used to go to school with a boy named Blair, and didn't know it could be a girls name until later. I love the name for a girl, it is very pretty and strong.

My name is Blair (I'm a girl), and I can't stand it! It's always mistaken for something else (usually Claire) and it's constantly spelled wrong.

I don't know. I like it for a boy with that spelling, and Blaire for a girl. I wouldn't name my children that, though, because I think they could be mistaken for the opposite sex.

Blair's a pretty cool name. It sounds like someone mysterious and smart.
For some strange reason, Blair Witch comes to mind, but that doesn't really have an effect on me. The thing that does, is Miss Blaire, my creepy old art teacher who had a strange looking rocking horse in her classroom.

It reminds me too much of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

I love this name! I know a kid named Blair (guy). It's a good name! But I like it as a guy name much more than a girl name. Probably cause I only know a guy who has the name, it looks weird on a girl for me.

I really love this name, but only for a male. If I ever have a son someday then this is the name I'm set on using.

Blair Cornelia Waldorf is one of the main characters in the Gossip Girl book series and TV shows. She's a wealthy, dominating girl who lives on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

I would love to name a girl this but it's too mausculine.
If I named a boy this he would get teased. People would say "Blair, do you know ballet?".

I love this name for a girl, but I would spell it Blaire, with an e at the end.

My cousin, a boy, is called Blair and I think it suits a boy better than a girl. Although I like it on both, I think it's more masculine. He gets called Bear as a nickname from family or Blairy.

-- Miss-Rory  2/23/2008

I really like the name Blair, I think it is a nice name for a boy. In my opinion a girl named Blair would be like a boy named Anne.

I absolutely hate this name for both sexes. I'd say it sounds more masculine than feminine, but I really think it should be preserved as a surname. It makes me think of 'blur', 'blare', and even 'Bleurgh!' It just has a really unpleasant sound to it from the beginning to the end, and it reminds me of Tony Blair.

My younger *male* cousin is called Blair (circa 97/98) so I can't imagine he'll ever really come across another Blair his age. I like his name because it's different, even though he's in the UK and would've been hearing Tony Blair constantly the past few years it isn't overly common.

I don't think this is a name for a girl though, even if I like the Gossip Girls character I think it's more masculine than feminine.

-- Miss-Rory  5/23/2008

I only know one Blair and I really like this name. I hate it for a girls name though, it just doesn't fit. It's a good name because it's not very popular. Or at least I've hardly ever heard it as a first name.

Blair. Witch. Project.

Sorry, I had to throw that out there!

The name of the character Blair Waldorf from the hit teen drama Gossip Girl. Blair is known for being the "It Girl" and being extremely vulnerable and insecure under her sexy, bratty exterior.

My best friend's name is Blaire, I think it is feminine and unique. Also I like calling her the Blaire Witch.

-- upon_her_eyes  1/27/2009

This name is really unusual I think. It's not every day you meet a Blair. I know a girl named Blair. I think it's a nice middle name also. When I hear the name Blair I think of a pretty city girl who is kind of unusual and has cool hair.

-- becca_marciano  3/6/2009

Love the name, love the spelling! Makes me think of a little girl with dark chocolate-colored hair and ivory skin; very "uptown". Also a name that she can grow with.

-- ginamarie  5/2/2009

I'm Blair and I think it's very good name (I'm girl)! My middle name is Leigh and together they sounds very trendy and stylish.

I like this name on a boy, but not on a girl. As a feminine name, Blair makes me think of a snooty popular girl or heiress obsessed with fashion. It doesn't sound very feminine anyway.

-- bananarama  9/23/2009

My name is Blair Marie and I really obsessed with fashion-and what's wrong with it? It doesn't mean I'm stupid or kinda cheap. I think the name Blair is really really sweet and feminine!

-- Anonymous User  10/7/2009

I think Blair is a short but pretty name for a girl. I think it is more feminine than masculine. If in doubt, you can always add an "e" at the end which makes it look more feminine.
