DH and I have always liked the name Harper for a girl. With the federal election approaching, would you be thinking of Stephen Harper when you hear the name Harper or not associate the two? Thanks!
I do think of Stephen Harper when I hear this name! Especially since she would be born while he is PM, it would be hard not to shake the association in the short term, probably not in the long term though.
Yep. Stephen Harper. No go for me. But then, I'm also not a fan of first names that sound like last names just as a general rule.
It's also super tendy right now, I think 80% of the people on my BMB are naming their kids that... Maybe you could find another pretty H name?
Oh Heather.... It's not a common name anymore and I LOVE wildflower names. Which Heather technically is.
I could never use Harper because of the association. However, if you love it, the general publics extreme dislike for him will probably drastically decease Harpers popularity in the next couple years. So that's a plus and a minus, I guess.

I always think of Harper Lee. But that's me. I pay more attention to books than politics.
ok I'll shut up now.
