So there is still time to pick another name. People will see it on a class list in elementary school and think he is a girl. My sister wanted to do a girl's birthday party for her kindergartner because she didn't want to invite the whole class. She just sent invitations to the girls. Most of the girls in the class came along with Harper, the only boy at the party. [/quote]

CATASTROPHE!

No, wait, actually not a catastrophe.[/quote]

Of course it isn't a catastrophe, just an indicator of things to come. As Harper becomes exclusively a girl's name a boy with the name will have a harder time throughout his life. When he sends in a resume people will think he is a girl, etc.  Why name your kid something that makes it slightly more difficult in life. [/quote]

Tell that to all the Pats, Chrises, Alexes and Saschas you know. They seem to be making it work. [/quote]

DC has in class at school a boy named Sloan and a girl named Avalon. Anything goes.[/quote]
