Blain Origin and Meaning

The name Blain is a girl's name.

Blain is a feminine adaptation of what was traditionally a masculine name and surname of Scottish and Gaelic origin. The name derives from the Gaelic 'blàthán,' meaning 'flower' or 'blossom,' though some sources also connect it to 'blán,' meaning 'white' or 'fair.' As a given name for girls, Blain offers a strong, distinctive sound with a touch of Celtic heritage. It represents a modern trend of adopting surnames and traditionally male names for girls, giving it a contemporary, gender-neutral quality. While relatively uncommon for females, this rarity adds to its appeal for parents seeking a distinctive name. The single-syllable simplicity combined with rich cultural roots makes Blain both straightforward and meaningful.
