Ooh I love both.

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

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

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!

Wren.

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.

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

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.

Wren is gorgeous. Harper sounds like a shop.
