If you heard the name Harper

[achristmasbaby]

would you think boy or girl??

[LastOfTheMulledWine]

Well there's Harper Lee isn't there which is my first thought? Nowadays though I'd expect an immaculately turned out American boy in slacks and a tank top.

[MadreInglese]

boy probably

[TinselianAstra]

To kill a mockingbird.

I'd porbably think it sounded like a boy's name, but could understand if it was a girl.

[dinoroar]

I'd think surname. Although if I had to choose between boy or girl, I'd think boy probably.

[hannahsaunt]

Harper is a girl. Obviously. Didn't someone famous call their dd2 Harper, recently? I was v ; dh won't let me call ours Harper.

[HarrogateMum]

my second cousin in Aus has a little girl called Harper, think its a lovely name.

[Avendesora]

girl

[Paolosgirl]

I wouldn't think boy or girl - I'd think surname

[Pineapplechunks]

Boy.

[doubleexpresso]

There's a woman who write for The Guardian, Zoe someone and her DD is called Harper. I honestly would have thought it was a boy's name, or like Paolo a surname.

[claraquack]

American.

[pollywobblebauble]

girl, american

bit too close to harpic for me

[Hulababy]

Probably girl.

There is a female character in one of the Disney channel programmes that DD watches - on Wizards of Waverly Place.

[hellsbelles]

Harper lee springs to mind here too....so girl obviously.

[Hassled]

I'd think girl. It's a girl's name.

[nannyzo]

boy

[MrsMattie]

Girl. Harper Lee.

[Mistletoesnowman]

Girl - as in Harper Lee. I love it too.

[MamaLazarou]

Girl. American girl.

[auntycam]

Definitely girl - after Harper Lee.

[Bleatblurt]

Boy.

[BunnyLebowski]

I'd think 'the poor wee fecker'.
