Piper, definitely.

I don't like Harper at all.

I love both but forced to choose id go with Harper.

JeSaisPas · 25/02/2018 04:48

Harper. No reason, I just think it's a lovely name.

joystir59 · 25/02/2018 07:01

Orange is the new black?

MrsGinger · 25/02/2018 07:09

I love Piper

LascellesMoustache · 25/02/2018 07:12

Piper. But mainly because I'm an Orange is the new black fan.
I like both though. I think it depends what goes best with your surname or other sibling names if you really can't choose between the two

EllieMe · 25/02/2018 07:12

A bit too American for me. There are much nicer names out there.

17caterpillars1mouse · 25/02/2018 07:13

I don't like Harper but Piper is nice. I only know 1 Piper who is 1

Countingsheeeep · 25/02/2018 07:19

Piper....Harper is too celeb for me

WowserBowser · 25/02/2018 07:26

I loved Harper until Vicky and Dave had one.

I would go for Piper I think

MumOfTwoMasterOfNone · 25/02/2018 07:28

Just about to say the same as the PP. I loved Harper and wanted to use it myself, until the Beckhams used it Sad

Annabelle4 · 25/02/2018 07:29

Harper

coffeemugged · 25/02/2018 07:30

Piper because I'm a Charmed fan.

I'd like Harper more if the Beckhams hadn't used it. They've tainted it imo.

SwinginFromTheChandelier · 25/02/2018 07:31

Harper.

Yeahsureokay · 25/02/2018 07:32

Yes, I just think of the Beckhams now, and would assume people are copying.

Piper is nice.

ChocolateCrunch · 25/02/2018 07:35

Piper, as it sounds nicer than Harper to me. Also, the Beckham connection would put me off choosing Harper.

TERFette · 25/02/2018 07:37

They’re both revolting, sorry!
But I’d sooner call my child after an acclaimed author than a drug mule, so it would be Harper for me.

Scrumptiousbears · 25/02/2018 07:39

Neither. I'd never use a name a celeb has chosen. It just screams of chaviness. Piper also sounds like your are trying too hard. Sorry.

BoredOnMatLeave · 25/02/2018 07:41

Harper sounds like a dog name to me, sorry.

Piper is quite nice

Elfyn · 25/02/2018 09:10

Piper!

Both are equally awful. Sorry.

HuskyMcClusky · 25/02/2018 09:35

I don’t like either, but Harlow always sounds nicer than Harper, to my ear.
