Hello! I love the name Harper, but I can't help associate it a lot with the Beckhams.. thoughts?

A bit boring and popular for my liking. Not a very cute name doesn't help when every Harper I know has obnoxious parents either

Awful and unfeminine, sorry.

Haha ok well you've all managed to put me off it! (Which is fine, I wanted honesty Smile)

ah shame.

while I do get the beckham association I love the name

I know two toddlers called Harper. I like it, I don't love it. Much prefer Scout if we're going with a TKAMB theme :-)

How about Hester?

I’m a big TKAM fan so always had it as a dream middle name for one day down the line...then the Beckhams totally wrecked it 😂

Though I don't mind this style of name and quite like the sounds, it has become too trendy, and yes, first thought is the Beckhams.

How about Piper instead? Love that!

Hester would make me think of Uncle Fester, but then young kids might not have heard of him.

I’m not fond of Harper.
