Nice name but maybe not with Buckley. As has been said, too many ey/ee sounds.

It sounds like a rubbish motorbike.

Leo or Joel would be nicer :)

It's a bit sing song, I don't think it goes.

Not the best....

Harley is like Barclay, Oakley, Bailey etc. IMO its a brand name.

Buckley is lovely, a village in North Wales. Sounds quite olde englishe as a boys name. Is Buckley your surname or an alternative to Harley?

Arthur Buckley sounds grand!

I like Harley but it doesn't sound 'right' to me tbh sorry. Maybe its a bit sing-songey and that's why I don't like it.

With Buckley I'd be thinking of names that don't have an 'ey/ee' sound at the end Smile
