Harlow.

I love it. It is elegant, sophisticated, pretty, and it reminds me of something pretty. It's not too feminine, but not yet masculine. WDYT?

I think of Nicole Richie. It's a very pretty name, and I expect since Nicole Richie named her baby Harlow 6 months ago, this name is going to skyrocket. Like I said though, it's a very cool name.

I really like Harlow/e for a girl's name. I think it's both sweet for a little one, and confident sounding for a woman. I'm *glad* Nicole Ritchie brought it to the forefront -- I think it deserves more attention. I would consider using it if we have another girl except for the fact that so far (seven kids) we've given each child his/her own first initial and we already have an "H".

I personally don't think it will sky rocket; there are too many people who will refuse to use it b/c of the connection with Ms. Ritichie.

Nice choice if you use it!

I think Harlow is completely masculine ... nothing feminine about it, IMO.

Not a huge fan... It is just okay to me. I do think of Nicole Richie as well, and fnd it too masculine for my tastes.

I guess it depends on how old you are -- it calls to mind Jean Harlow to me.

It does make me think of Jean Harlow, and she had massive issues. And then it makes me think of Nicole Richie, who...hmmm...ditto. (Though it does sound like she's doing better.) But it's definitely media-loaded.

I like this name. It makes me think of another great H name for a girl, Harper.
