flump ing dimwits?

Yes I've just posted on the "poor child" thread re the child's name, ridiculous name as far as I'm concerned but that's life in the celebrity lane isn't it.

Nothing wrong with the name Harper.

It didn't hold Harper Lee back.....

[Bbbananas]

There's 3 or 4 threads on this now.... As I've said, I like Harper. Not so keen on Seven, esp for a girl.

is a Harper Seven a motorbike or something? Harper is a respectable enough name (and Americans often seem to give girls 'surname' first names like Taylor and Madison). The Seven bemuses me a bit.

[Gromit]

I assume 7 is his squad number playing football.

Didn't David wear the 7 shirt when he played for England?

harper seven....................the only girl in the family, and they cant even think of a pretty feminine name :( her initials are HSB!!!!!!!!!!!

[gina32]

[Sqad]

She was 7lbs at birth..............a clue?

I posted about this as well, and Harper Lee's name was Nelle, though i have seen it as Nell Harper Lee
but don't like Seven, very odd

Beckham took over 7 from Eric Cantona at Manchester United. He retained it for England duty

Seven is a prime number. His suad number at LA Galaxy is 23, another prime number.

Harper Lee...a one-trick pony......

There the similarity ends

Great name.

okay... I would have thought the name should have been reserved for their seventh child (or at least for a boy). But nobody cares about middle names anyway. Harper is a nice name.

As I said on another thread, it sounds like a lager

New 'Harp 7'

Brilliant.

I think it's a ghastly name actually, but I like old fashioned names that are probably boring.

Harpers is a bizarre name. Get it!! Harper's Bizarre!!!

Harper is a nice,strong unisex name-there is no reason girls have to have 'pretty' names. It means 'player of the harp'. Maybe they hope she will be musical.

[LoftyLottie]

I don't like pretty, pretty names as such, just strong old fashioned names like Sarah and Elizabeth and Ann and Jane. Timeless names that don't pin a label on you.

Would have been OK for a middle name perhap

You can't even shorten it, Harp, Harpie, not really

Harper Seven Beckham was named following a misunderstanding. David thought the Doctor asked him the time.
