Thoughts on Girl Name pls ...

My (non-nestie) pregnant friend wants my opinion on her girl name choice...

Piper

I LOVE piper personally but the reason shes going back & forth is because her last name is Potter.

Sooooo - what do you think:

Piper Nicole Potter?

Her siblings name is Rory - and Piper & Rory is adorable imo. Thoughts?

Re: Thoughts on Girl Name pls ...

  • I think it's a very cute name, but I think it does seem a little um, "unique" for the last name. But if nothing else, it's an easy name to remember!

  • I wouldn't put Piper with Potter lol.. I dont' like how that sounds but that's me..
  • I like Piper a lot, but I have to admit I'm not a fan of Piper Potter. Too cutsie or something.

  • I love the name Piper, but not with the last name Potter. Too many Ps.
  • It makes me think of a story book character.  I like it but she will def have to have a big personality to pull it off.

  • I LOVE the name Piper too, but my husband doesn't like it with our last name...'Paul'. I understand. Now, if you say Piper Nicole Potter that flows well. =)

    If you knew how lonely my life has been And how long I've been so alone And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along And change my life the way you've done

  • I really love Piper. But when I see Piper Potter, it makes me think of an eccentric Harry Potter character. It's also alot of P's.

  • I agree, Piper is a cute name, but I don't think Piper Potter works.

  • ADORABLE name but I dont think it sounds good with their last name. My maiden name is Keller, so I am sensitive to those kinds of name combinations!

    This.

  • I like Piper a lot but not Piper Potter so much.  Sounds like a character in a kids' book.
  • I really like Piper, but I think it sounds a little nursery rhyme like with the last name Potter. Piper Potter.

  • I love it, all of it! I wouldn't avoid a name bc it may remind some people of a movie.  When the baby comes it will own it with it's own personality!  Just my opinion!

  • I would normally like that name... but I don't think Piper Potter would be that great of an idea.

  • Piper is a cute name but not with Potter...sounds like pitter patter or some sort of tongue twister  - piper potter picked a pack of pickled peppers
  • Love Piper just not with Potter.


  • Piper is cute...but not with Potter.

    I know everyone gets teased in school at some point but that's just asking for it. Why set your kid up to be teased...I was teased throughout my school years for my first and last name being a popular song (not intended on my moms part-just happened that way) But it became very old getting it sung to me every single day in middle school to the point I wanted to change it.

  • I LOVE Piper, but with your last name it does sound a little goofy to me... but I just love the name so much I might be willing to overlook that if I were in your shoes... what about Harper?  I couldn't get DH to come around on Piper, but he agreed to Harper!
  • I like the name Piper, but in all honestly, Piper Potter sounds like a nursery rhyme character.

    This is exactly what I though...I really liked the names Ave and Eva, but DH's last name is Ev            .  So it just wouldn't work for us having that matching sound.  I feel the same way about this.
