I really like the name Harper for a girl, My DH is a little unsure. What do you guys think??? Be honest even if you dont like it i wont be offended id ust really like peoples opinion
It is definitely a girls' name, but it's personally not my style either. A lot of people like it though (and I do like Harper Lee--To Kill a Mockingbird).
I do not understand the appeal of this name at all, even if you are a Harper Lee fan (and I am!). It doesn't sound feminine to me- it sounds ugly. It reminds me of a harpoon or to "harp" on someone- neither positiive images imo. Sorry!

Thanks everyone. you have all been a great help and all your opinions will go a long way to helping us make a decision on the name (I still LOVE it just got to show the DH this board then try and convince him )

Love it and I'm seeing it more and more. I know a woman (40 something) with the name.
