wiktionary
From Middle English blak, blac(“pale”), from Old English blāc(“pale, pallid, wan, livid; bright, shining, glittering, flashing”) and Old Norse bleikr(“pale; yellow, pink; any non-red warm color”); both from Proto-Germanic *blaikaz(“pale; shining”). Compare Scots bleg(“light, drab”). More at bleak.
From the Middle English blāken, the northern reproduction (the form in the south was blōken, whence the verb bloke) of the Old English blācian(“to become pale”), from blāc(“shining, white, pale”).
