I really like the name Harper, however, our last name is Prior and I feel like there are too many 'r' sounds in Harper Prior. A middle name will break it up but there will be very few times that a middle name will be used. So, do you think Harper Prior sounds OK?
I hate to say it but the sounds of harper and prior are very similar. Personally, i'd go with a first name with more sylables than the last name in this case.
I don't think it sounds good at all. I feel your pain. There are so many lovely names that just do NOT go well with our last name. You will find the right one.

Ditto this. A lot of great names are rhymey with my last name, including one of my very faves, Susannah. It sucks
I wasn't a fan when my best friend wanted to name her daughter Harper (last name sounds like Rocker). It's a lot of R sounds too but now at five months old, it's her name and that's that. If you love it, go for it. If you aren't sure though, keep looking!
