Val_2 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Or even Harpo. What a horrible name, sounds like some of coat a gentleman would wear on his estate and its not feminine in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too thin, false boobs aren't real curves. Smile lost so long ago, that I bet they cannot remember it. And all those kids, thought we needed the world population down not up.

Cendrillon Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 [quote user="Russethouse"]Funnily enough a friend of my daughters called her daughter Harper - she is a six months old.......but seven ? ? Six I could have understood as she will be the sixth member of their family, did DB ever where a number seven on his shirt ?[/quote]It seams you made the right guess RHhttp://uk.news.yahoo.com/beckhams-celebrate-harper-arrival-131501456.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val_2 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I always understood that a woman should not have more than three births by cesaerean section because of the damage to the muscles and skin from being cut open in the same spot each time. Is this true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evianers Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 AFAIK three should normally be the maximum.But who said the Beckhams are normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Why has Victoria Beckham named her daughter after a Bank ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardengirl Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I heard that Harper was chosen because it was the name of a character in a TV series their sons liked. I prefer to think of them being fans of Harper Lee's 'To Kill A Mocking Bird' - one of my favourite books. Maybe Mrs Beckham was reading it just before the birth?! Could be she was rushing to get it finished ready for her book club meeting the next day? [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[:)][/quote]GG, there was a programme on the BBC earlier on this year which was shown as part of their book celebration festival, which featured Harper Lee's life and, in particular, To Kill a Mockingbird. Did you see it?The programme makers visited her town, the newspaper offices where she worked and some of the sites that would have been the setting for the book. They even showed pictures of her as a young journalist. And met up with some of her friends and I was especially interested in the couple who were her "patrons" and paid for her living expenses while she tried to make it as a novelist.Then, at the end of that programme, they showed the film of the book.Then, I dug out my wonderfully-illustrated, hard-backed copy (must have been bought at a time of my life when I was flushed with funds and not have to watch the exchange rate!) and enjoyed it as much as I ever did!

JSKS Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Mr and Mrs Beckham seem to have it all: no financial worries, lovely homes, healthy children. David seems to be well respected within his chosen field of work and Victoria seems to have the sense to ignore the particularly sour grapes thrown her way.If they are a bit thick and talentless it's the sort of thick and talentless I wouldn't mind for my family!

Pommier Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Are they thick and talentless or is that part of the publicity presentation to the public?Generally people who make their own fortunes are pretty smart!Can't say I'm struck on their choices of names, but it's only fashion after all.
