I'm from CA and I've never heard anyone named Harper. Interesting choice Harper Seven.

I actually do like the name Harper although I am surprised they didn't come up with something a little more unusal.
I also strongly believe that they went HT for this baby. Posh has certainly been upfront about wanting a girl for all these years. And they have the money... so why wouldn't they have taken this path?? I'm sure they didn't want to publicize doing HT, so that's why the were stories about them swaying and the reference to the first ultrasound showing a boy.DS1+ DS2

Well, Harper has been the name I've wanted to use for my DD for well over 5 years now. If my 5YO had been a girl, I would've named her Harper Kirby. Now that so many celebrities are using it, I'm not sure I want to go that route. Lisa Marie Presley, Neil Patrick Harris, Tiffany Theissen…now Posh & Becks…it makes me sad.

I think choosing a name has to be one of the hardest decisions. Similar to Harper, I really like Harlow (which is Nicole Richie's daughters name). Good luck with choosing a name for your DD Winogurl

I'm right there with you Wino, I've wanted to name a DD Harper forever (it's my maiden name), but now I don't know--it makes me sad too!

I really liked Harper if DS was a girl, but now I have met both baby boys and girls named Harper! Its one of those names I think a lot of people started to like at the same time. Its a nice strong girl name, but with a sort of soft meaning. I think of Harper Lee, so that's also a plus. I'm mixed about the Seven. I guess it has significance for them, but it also strikes me as a little demeaning to give a person a number as a name. If I had to pick a number to be a name, though, I guess Seven would be the prettiest. Or Eleven?
and my HT

I read something about the Seven, don't know if it was a quote from him or web speculation but they chose seven becasue it was lucky and reminded them of the seven colors of the rainbow, and don't people call the baby after a loss a rainbow baby? I wonder if here may be a hint of this in there somewhere?
