A free, original lullaby written just for the name Blake — ready to read tonight or turn into a keepsake poster.
Little Blake, so small and bright,
Bathed in silver, soft moonlight,
Stars above begin to glow,
Shimmering in a row.
Twinkle, twinkle, see them play,
Lighting up the Milky Way,
Blake will watch them dance and beam,
Floating on a cloud so dreamy.
Moonbeams kiss your tiny face,
Wrapping Blake in gentle grace,
Night sky sings a lullaby,
Rocking Blake as time drifts by.

Origin — Old English
A surname from two opposite Old English words that fell together in Middle English: blæc, “black”, and blāc, “pale, fair”.
Where sources disagree: Because the two words converged, a medieval Blake could have been named for dark colouring or fair — the surname genuinely carries both.
We follow the standard reference works on given names, and we say so plainly when a meaning is unsettled rather than choosing the prettiest one.
Every BabyVerse verse is built around one name and its sound, so Blake hears their own name carried through the meter rather than dropped into a blank. That is the whole difference between a keepsake and a personalised product: the words could not be reused for another child.
Parents read it at bedtime. Grandparents and godparents frame it. Either way it is the one gift on the table that no one else can duplicate — which is why it tends to outlast everything else in the pile.
