Well, I did say it sounds like a monster.It'd seem better if I could connect it with music, but I can't. Someone who plays the harp is a harpist, to me. Someone who harps is a harper (aka nag or harpy).

I love it on a boy, but can't stand it on a girl.

I actually love it on both genders! I like it moreso on a girl. I was worried like Monroe and Ellison being used on girls, If I named my son Harper, it would be cruel.

I really don't think Harper on a boy is cruel, it is also used fairly frequently for boys in Australia. Actually most of the boy Harpers I know are older than the girls, but I know two little ones.
