Blase Origin and Meaning

The name Blase is a girl's name.

Blase is traditionally a masculine name of French origin, derived from the Latin name Blasius, meaning 'lisping' or 'stammering.' However, it appears this entry classifies it as feminine, which represents a modern gender-fluid approach to naming. Blase is also connected to St. Blaise, a 4th-century Armenian bishop and martyr. The name carries a sophisticated European flair and shares pronunciation with the word 'blasé,' though they have different etymological roots. While uncommon in contemporary use, Blase offers a short, distinctive option with historical depth. The name's rarity gives it a certain exclusivity while its brevity makes it practical and memorable. Pronunciation may vary between 'blaze,' 'blah-zay,' or 'blahz.'
