Harper

Maudlinmaud · 23/01/2017 14:25

Harper. I love that name but dh said no.

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 23/01/2017 14:28

Ooh I love both.

Harper is perhaps getting more popular at the mo if that makes a difference to you.

Sophronia · 23/01/2017 14:29

Wren is less popular/trendy

xStefx · 23/01/2017 14:30

I like Wren, and Erin (which is similar) loads, I like harper too but know loads of them since the beckhams :-)

teachergirl2011 · 23/01/2017 14:31

Harper is ghastly there are so many of them now as well x

Blossomdeary · 23/01/2017 14:32

Very definitely neither!

Afreshstartplease · 23/01/2017 14:33

Wren

Harper reminds me of the Beckham's

rumblingDMexploitingbstds · 23/01/2017 14:34

Wow. Both gorgeous!

BloodSweatToilAndTears · 23/01/2017 14:35

I really like Wren.

TondelayaDellaVentamiglia · 23/01/2017 14:36

I love Wren....also Linnet...maybe two t's Linnett??

Harper is meh!

Cinnamon84 · 23/01/2017 14:36

Love wren! Though think I prefer Ren (I know that's a completely different and meaning)

EverythingEverywhere1234 · 23/01/2017 14:36

Wren, it's beautiful!

Mol1628 · 23/01/2017 14:38

Wren. Don't like Harper. People will also think Beckham.

TheresAlwaysTimeForTea · 23/01/2017 14:42

How about Aspen? Out of the two I prefer Harper. Harper and Aspen are both on our list. I know they're not to everyone's tastes but we can't all be called Clementine now can we!

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 23/01/2017 16:09

Wren.

EweAreHere · 23/01/2017 16:10

Wren.

Harper is become more popular because of the Beckhams. I would hate to have looked like I was copying a celebrity's child's name.

TipTop333 · 23/01/2017 16:37

Wren. I knew a baby Wren and it is a beautiful name.

TreacleTreacleLittleStar · 23/01/2017 16:39

Wren....?! That's hideous! Please don't name a child that!!!!

user1480930113 · 23/01/2017 17:31

I do like Aspen, thanks for the suggestion! Well as Harper Beckham is 7 I didn't think it was still so associated to her but maybe I'm wrong lol x

How about Piper, similar in feel to Harper but no Beckham association.
However Wren is also a lovely name.

HunterHearstHelmsley · 23/01/2017 17:35

Wren is gorgeous. Harper sounds like a shop.
