Blewett Origin and Meaning

The name Blewett is a boy's name meaning "blue cloth; cornflower".

Blewett is related to the Middle English words bluet, referring to a blue woolen cloth, and bleuet, meaning "cornflower." Its use as a surname was likely influenced by Blewett's status as a nickname for people with blue eyes, as well as those who often wore blue clothing.

Blewett may not be so usable as a first name today due to the similarity to the phrase "you blew it," although you could always stick it in the middle.
