Posh and Becks have had a daughter and named her.....drum roll..... Harper Seven.
Even by celeb standards that's pretty off the wall. Why would you do that?




LadyConstanze -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 6:37:37 AM)

I dunno, but haven't they named their other offspring after places they were conceived?

You know with that whole "most outdo the other celebs with crazy names for the sprogs" trend, I can see some kids who are going to be very angry with their parents... Makes me think of Johnny Cash's song "A boy named Sue"




hardcybermaster -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 6:38:06 AM)

cracking tune




hardcybermaster -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 6:39:23 AM)

life is tough enough being the offspring of a celeb to start with, so lets make it even harder by giving them a name that marks them out as different




GreedyTop -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 6:40:45 AM)

I dunno, I kinda like Harper...

the SEVEN bit is rather offputting, though...




Muttling -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 7:12:02 AM)

Better than Moon and Dweezil Zappa.




GreedyTop -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 7:22:36 AM)

no kidding!! 

I knew kids way back when that were named (honestly) Sunbeam and Moonbeam..

*sigh*

of course, that WAS the late 60s...

Apparently it's something to do with the goalkeeper Steve Harper who had the number seven at Manchester United. Supposedly. If he'd ever been that good at football I'd of let him get away with calling his children whatever he fancied, but he's pushing his luck at this point - though I can't say I'm surprised, they've never been the sharpest knives in the metaphorical box.

lol,not a football fan then? steve harper never played for Man u and goalies generally wear the No1 jersey,however Becks did wear 7 for Man u so that might explain that part.... still a stupid name though




bighappygoth39 -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 8:17:13 AM)

When I first heard it on the news, I thought they said they'd called her 'half past seven'. which made me think that naming your kids after their place of conception is a bit mad, but naming them after the time they were conceived is pushing it just a bit... :P




GreedyTop -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 8:18:07 AM)

lmao!




hardcybermaster -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 8:18:19 AM)

I was at university with a Lorien. (Her dad was big on Tolkein, as were a lot of men of his generation.)
Daft name, but not half as daft as Harper 7. Sounds like a fookin' post rock band...




foxling -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 8:45:00 AM)

I quite like Harper! At least the stupid name is the middle one!




GreedyTop -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 8:47:27 AM)

agreed, foxling!




HannahLynHeather -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 8:56:15 AM)

it's nothing new really. margeaux hemingway was supposedly named after the wine her parents were drinking the night she was conceived

Long time ago I had a best friend...whose mother's first name was America.  And while visiting my stepfather's grave here in WV, I spied another grave of someone with the first name Truelove.  What has been really amusing is when parents have a certain last name...and they know it is so verrrry wrong to give their kids a first name that goes with it, lol.  There is even some club to join, for people with names like Skye Blue and I. P. Daily.  Heard about it when I lived in California.  [;)]

I like the name Harper.  When I saw Seven, I wondered if the parents were Star Trek Voyager fans who thought that Seven of Nine was hawt. 

When I named my kid I thought of nicknames he would have to live with as well as acronyms.  My mother's initials were B.O.  Yeah, body odor.  Sometimes the kids were nicer and called her by the initials of her first and middle names...BJ...yeah, blowjob. 

Sometimes someone's last name is enough to bring on the teasing.  With my own, even the teachers climbed aboard that wagon in high school. 

Who knows, Harper Seven (whatever the last name is) might get called four eyes or tin grin in school and the middle name might never come up.

Hey you can always name it after the act!
There's a cook at work who's name is Conception.
Apparently he is the youngest of his Mexican parents kids.
(not being racist.. i do think it plays a part though)

We all just call him Concho.




DavidLee44UK -> RE: Beckhams daughter (7/11/2011 10:02:51 AM)

The name Conception refers to the Immaculate Conception. And unless I'm mistaken "concho" is the South American equivalent for "cunt" (if I recall what my Chilean girlfriend taught me way back when correctly).
