About Blanche
While typically used for girls, former US senator Blanche Bruce — the first ever Black man to preside over the senate — makes this name feel useable (and meaningful) on a boy as well.
As of October 2026, Blanche ranked #3573 in US births in 1946 SSA, peaked at #773 in 1891.
Editor's take: The name Blanche is a boy's name meaning "white".
