Harper / Piper

[bobmycat]

Which do you preferThanks!

Both are horrible. But Piper is better if there had to be a choice.

Neither are nice at all, particularly Harper which is awful. Sorry.

I prefer Piper but don't love it.

I love Piper.

Harper for me

My cousin just had a boy but her girl names were ‘Piper Rose’ and ‘Indie Rose’

They're both awful

Lots of siblings being born to the children I teach are being called Harper. I guess people want to be like the Beckhams. I know at least four dogs called Piper.

I'm not keen on either. Harper makes me.think harping on, Piper is descriptive.

I don't think people think names through very well.

On another thread a while ago one choice in a list was Violet Piper. That's a description not a name. I pictured a Scottish bagpiper dressed in violet tartan when I read Violet Piper.

But if I had to choose one Piper is best.

Piper or Skylar

Neither.

They are surnames not girl's names. There are thousands of beautiful names out there, can't you pick one of those? Harper and Piper will date, and probably be a bit downmarket.

Harper

Piper. Because of Charmed

The poshest couple I know (and I know quite a few), have a daughter called Piper. They're quite 'alternative' and also have a Daphne. I like it, but agree that it might date. I do think names are changing though. They've had a few comments along the lines of, 'what if she grows up to be a barrister?' Well, you could say the same about Daisy, Poppy, Evie, Milly etc etc. I think people grow into their names and while WE might judge people with 'different' names, I don't think the next generation will as they will have grown up with so many different names! As long as they are spelt correctly, I don't think there is too much to judge. I think the name Harper is pretty, but the Beckham connection would put me off.

I like both

I like both but slightly prefer Harper.
