  1. At first, I didn’t know if this name would suit my daughter , but as she grows older, I see that she likes the name and he lives it.

  2. Harley I was worried it wouldn’t fit him as a name but he has for sure lived up to his name and is my second born strong willed child.

  3. Hes named after the motorcycle Harley Davidson cuz his last name his Davidson

  4. I chose the name harley because its a neutral gender name for a boy or girl and i wasnt sure what the sex of my baby was at the time i picked it.
