i dont mind Harper but i would have thought after having 3 boys they would have chosen a prettier name.
as for the seven thats just daft.

When I read the name I thought they must have had another boy!
Not a very attractive name for a girl.

It's not a very attractive name for a girl is it? I thought she'd have gone for something more girly as she's waitied so long.
Her Aunt and Uncle are friends and ex neighbours :rolleyes: and I've emailed them this morning and said I'm not keen on the name!! :blush: I wonder if they will mention it when they email me back.

The only people named Harper that I know of are Harper Lee (author of To Kill a Mockingbird) and a character out of The Wizards of Waverley Place (a Disney Channel programme!)
I can't imagine the Beckhams are big readers of classic novels!

Harper is ok (ish) ....but more suited to a boy.
I expected them to choose something unusual but thought it would be a pretty girlie name .
As for Seven ????????? :huh:

I've had to stop saying it as when I do it sounds like Half past seven :laughing: must be my accent :D
Not keen but then I wouldn't call my children any of their other names either.
There's so many pretty girls names out there they could have chose

Can't stand it either, also feel very sorry for the boys V and D have made it so obvious they wanted a girl and how everything would be perfect and she would be breast fed to give her a perfect start she couldn't be bothered for them a bottle was good enough.
