WDYT of Harper

Coopersmommy101207

What do you girls think of the name Harper for a girl.

We are thinking either Catherine or Kay for the middle name.

 Our DS' name is Cooper.

Is that too many "er" sounds or too matchy matchy to name our kids?

Thanks

I really like Harper a lot, with either middle name.

LOVE IT! 

 

I like it when sibs have matchy match names!  My boys are Logan and Hudson... if we have another I'm think of Tristan or Ronin...  all end with a matching "in" sound!!

I see it a lot on these boards. It's nms.

It's a cute name, but as the mother of a Cooper myself, I probably wouldn't use it because of the semi-matchiness. Do you like Catherine Harper at all?

BTW, your bump name totally threw me off.  My Cooper's birthday is 10/21/2007, so for a second I thought they had the same name and birthday.

I LOVE Harper. It was on my original list but was nixed by DH.  I do no think that the names are too "matchy" either.

I love the name Harper- It was already decided on as our girl name.  But we are having a boy- so if we do ever have a girl, she will be Harper.  I personally don't find it to be too trendy-- I am a teacher and have never seen a Harper come through my school of 700 students in the 8 years I have worked there.  I am a huge literary person and To Kill a Mockingbird is my favorite book, hence...Harper.

harper and cooper are kinda cutesy together, but not horrible.

I love it!!  That's one of our top girl names, too!!

Not a fan of Harper, but I went to HS with a girl named Harper and she was ugly to everyone.

If Ezra would have been a girl, the name we choose was Harper Jane, and will use this if our next is a girl

I love Harper. ?I do think it is getting a little trendy, but not overused as far as I can tell. ?I think Catherine or Kay both work as middle names. ?No, I don't think Harper and Cooper are too matchy. ?Congrats on the baby girl!

Harper is trend-i-rific if you ask me. ?DH loves the name and I vetoed it because it's just getting overused.

Depending on what grade you teach, give it about 5-10 years and you''ll see them

I LOVE Harper for a girl.

I really like Harper.  I think it's "trendy" in the sense that a lot of people like it, but I don't think a lot of people are actually using it.  I just looked and only 1000 babies were named Harper last year...out of 4 million.  And I don't think it's too matchy will your little boy.

queenbone

Harper is fine.  It is a little matchy matchy though.

WheelerToBe

I hate it.  It makes me think of a harpy.

I love it, but I don't really like it with Cooper.  It's like you're giving all your kids last names or something and I think you'll have trouble with people knowing if you have 2 boys, 2 girls, or one of each. 

Catherine Harper is beautiful though!

I like Harper, but it is becoming very trendy
