If you heard the name Harper

[achristmasbaby]

would you think boy or girl??

Well there's Harper Lee isn't there which is my first thought? Nowadays though I'd expect an immaculately turned out American boy in slacks and a tank top.

boy probably

To kill a mockingbird.

I'd porbably think it sounded like a boy's name, but could understand if it was a girl.

I'd think surname. Although if I had to choose between boy or girl, I'd think boy probably.

Harper is a girl. Obviously. Didn't someone famous call their dd2 Harper, recently? I was v ; dh won't let me call ours Harper.

my second cousin in Aus has a little girl called Harper, think its a lovely name.

girl

I wouldn't think boy or girl - I'd think surname

Boy.

There's a woman who write for The Guardian, Zoe someone and her DD is called Harper. I honestly would have thought it was a boy's name, or like Paolo a surname.

American.

girl, american

bit too close to harpic for me

Probably girl.

There is a female character in one of the Disney channel programmes that DD watches - on Wizards of Waverly Place.

Harper lee springs to mind here too....so girl obviously.

I'd think girl. It's a girl's name.

boy

Girl. Harper Lee.

Girl - as in Harper Lee. I love it too.

Girl. American girl.

Definitely girl - after Harper Lee.

Boy.

I'd think 'the poor wee fecker'.

I'd think Harpers Bazaar
