Of these three, I'd have to choose Hilary. It's my stepsister's name and I've never liked it. I had to bite my tongue when my stepmother once mentioned how much she loves it (well, obviously she does). I don't like it due to the "Hil" syllable, the rest is okay.

But. Hester and Harper are worse. They are just uglier. Every syllable of them is ugly, whereas with Hilary it's only the first syllable. And Hilary at least is not old-lady ugly the way Hester is or trendy-surname ugly the way Harper is.

So if forced at gunpoint, Hilary it is.
