[Opinions] Harlow (f)
I recently met a little girl named Harlow. The name has started to grow on me and I’ve been trying to think of some middle names to go with it. What do you guys think of Harlow? What are some middle names you like with it?Harlow Claire
Harlow Elise

Not a fan of Harlow.
Sorry, it's a no from me. Surname-based first names, especially on girls, age badly to my mind - Madison, Ashley, etc. all evocative of specific trends.Harlow fits in that nicely.
I personally don't like it because it reminds me of the word harlot. I think Harlow would fit in with her peers Harper, Marlowe (which I prefer for the literary nod) and Harley though. I think Harlow Elise is nice. I would use something classic as a middle name but not a filler name either so
Harlow Lillian
Harlow Lucille
Harlow Pearl
or for something a little bit out there how about Harlow Cosette/Colette?
I'm not totally opposed to the name Harlow in theory; it does have a vintage glamorous slinkiness to it that I enjoy. But I think if I came across it in real life I'd find it disappointing, I just get that feeling about it.Let's make combos in honour of the bombshells that came before...Harlow Jayne
Harlow Marilyn
Harlow Jeanne
Harlow Brigitte
Harlow Mae
Harlow Claudette
Harlow Carole
Harlow Marlene
Harlow Veronica
Harlow Lana
Harlow Rita
While I like Jean Harlow, I'd much rather see a girl named Jean. Harlow calls to mind harlots.
Totally agree! Harlow has got to be a (potentially) unkind choice. Maybe use it for a rescue pet?
I'm a fan of surname-names. For Harlow, I'd pair it with something classic and feminine for balance.Harlow Rose
Harlow Eliana
Harlow Marie
Harlow Felicity
Harlow Isabelle
Harlow Madeleine
I LOVE the name Harlow some mns I've thought about Harlow Emma
It brings to mind a cowboy type man. I don't see anything feminine about it.For that reason if forced to make a combo for a woman I'd pair it with something long and frilly-ish to balance out Harlow's masculine vibe.Harlow Rosalie
Harlow Juliette
Harlow Valerie
Harlow Apollonia
Harlow Evangeline
