[Opinions] Harley
It's been on my mind lately. What do you guys think? Too biker or too much like Hayley? Also, any good combo ideas?

I like it. (I assume you're referring to it on a girl because of the comparison to Hayley. I've seen it on both but prefer it on females, provided they fit the "type" I associate with it.)
I don't think it's too much like Hayley. They give me totally different vibes. Hayley is girly, pink, and a bit 'wimpy' if that makes any sense. Harley gives me more "badass" (probably because of the biker association), and primarily reminds me of Harley Quinn.
There are only some "types" that I'd like seeing the name Harley on, however. I would definitely not like this name on a typically 'girly' person. That's one reason I'd hesitate to use it even if I liked it enough, because unless I could predict that my daughter was going to be a tomboy or a biker or something I wouldn't want to give her that name. (same goes for frilly names--they just don't fit all types.)Harley Jade

It's not my style but I think it is usable. Assuming it's for a boy, that is?

I don't really associated it with the motorbike unless I think really hard. I like it for both a boy and girl so I don't associate it with Hayley either. It's one of three "new" 'Ha-' names I've started to like lately, the others being Hadley and Harlow. :)

It's a pet name to me. We had a dog named Harley, and yeah he was named after Harley Davidson motorcycles.

Tacky and trendy.

I dislike it. It just reminds me of Harley Davidson, and it sounds trendy. I'd pass on it. I do, however, like some similar names, like Hailey and Hadley.

I kinda sorta like it for a girl but not that much. The only Harley I know personally is male. A very large, very friendly male German shepherd.

- Harley Elizabeth (girl)
- Harley Nicholas (boy)I prefer Harley on girls. The "Lee" ending. It's a bit to motorcycle related but it's okay.
