So Harper Seven Beckham was named based on a book author's name, and something which is a symbol of good luck. Under that naming system I think I'll call my first child J.K Swastika, amirite?

I don't think Swastikas ever brought anyone any good luck

"The word swastika came from the Sanskrit word svastika, meaning any lucky or auspicious object, and in particular a mark made on persons and things to denote good luck." In some cultures and religions it is a sign of good luck and well-being and has existed way before the Nazis.

Well pardon my ignorance. I do know, however, that every single empire to use it in the past 70 years has lost a major war.

I thought Seven came from David Beckham's old soccer number.

That was apparently only part of it. Other things being 7th month, weighting 7lbs and just overall because seven is a lucky number.
