Still brain storming for our little boy. Just wondering what are people's opinions and first thoughts about Harley. Its not something I'd normally have thought of but we've been through everything and now I'm just seeing names in different lights. I'm not sure If I like it or not but dp seems keen.

I don't like this name at all, as to me it is associated with motorcycles!

Harvey is similar, and there are lots of other surname type names you might consider, if you like them. For example Maxwell, Lewis, Heath.

It's really bad. Very downmarket.

I don't like it at all, sorry.

I thought I didn't like it but I saw in somewhere different and it looked better :p (rather desperate as he doesn't like any of the names I love and we have literally been all over the interest and all through books etc. The only things we could have missed would be too out there to consider I think.

I like it. But the Harley I know is female.

NickiFury · 04/08/2014 17:55

It's rough.

I think it's a very old english name meaning meadow? I know of one little boy and he has turned it into a very cool name.

No. It is naff

I know 2 Harleys but they're both girls.

Much prefer Harvey unless little one will be wearing a bandana.

I also know a female Harley.
