Sophie
Sophie has been present in the top 100 since 1999 where she was sitting at number #9. In 2003 she dropped back to #6 then climbed to #3 in 2006, #2 in 2001 and lucky number #1 in 2008 & 2009. Will 2010 see her hit number one again or after a decade of sitting in the top ten will it slowly start to fall but still remain a classic NZ favourite like Olivia, Isabella, Emily, Emma and fish n chips….
Sophie is popular around the world too, New Zealand is not the only country you are bound to hear Sophie being called out in public places. It is number one in Ireland & Scotland too for 2009. It makes the top three in the Netherlands #2, England #3 in 2009. Sophie is #65 in the USA, it entered in 2000 #160 and has risen steadily, jumping from #122 in 2006 to #82 in 2007, in contrast Sophia is #4.

June 20, 2010 · Filed under Names · Tagged Ben, Harpar, Harper
Harper
Harper is a boys name. (and a girls too)
Harper comes from the Old English hearpe which means harp.
A Harp is a musical instrument that is played especially in Ireland.
Harper Lee wrote “To kill a mockingbird.”
Ben Harper- American Musician.
Variants/Nicknames: Harpar.
Comments on Harper:
I recently heard of little girls named Harper. With all the pretty, feminine names out there, why would you name your daughter Harper? It sounds manly to me. Sorry to people with daughters named Harper.
— pink_floyd_fan 7/23/2006
I love To Kill a Mockingbird, possibly one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century but the name Harper is a little harsh. Her real name is Nell Harper Lee. Harper is also the name of one of the main characters from Angels in America by Tony Kushner. I say give the child whatever name you like and just nickname her Scout.
— AYN353 9/15/2006
So much nicer for a boy than a girl I think.
