Blayke

A variation of the more frequently used Blake, Blayke has both English and Irish origins. In Irish, the name is said to be an anglicization of the surname O’ Blathmhaic, meaning “descendant of Blath,” blath meaning “flower.” In English, the name derives from the term blac, meaning “dark” and “black,” or “pale” and “fair,” depending on the pronunciation. Some famous bearers of the name include Blake Lively and Blake Shelton.
