Help ID unlabeled hosta?

Hello, hosta-friends!
I'm finally, FINALLY making labels for the summer cottage hostas. I know most of their names, but this one, alas, I have forgotten.
Will y'all take a stab at identifying it? It's been growing in the same place for about ten years. Probably nothing too exotic.
Size -- there's a steel yardstick in the first photo, to show you the height. Now in bloom; flower stalks are about 46" tall.
The leaves have wavy edges, with 12 vein pairs. Hefty substance; nice dusty light blue-ish bloom on the reverse, as shown.
I appreciate any help you can give.
Thank you SO much!!!
-- Maureen
