For X reason, grandma was only able to have a single child despite her wishes to have a bigger family. At first, she was convinced that she was pregnant with a girl, until the moment she gave birth and realized it was a boy. Her husband was the one who chose the name since she was so hoping for a girl that didn't even think about other possibilities. Years passed, but she always thought about how it'd be if she had a daughter, with whom she would have spent time playing, going out, and especially talking (since her son wasn't exactly the most talkative person, being often described as 'hermetic with militar personality'). That dream was fading over time, seeing her son growing up in a healthy and happy family was good enough for her to feel like they, as parents, made things right, and that was all that mattered.
. . .
It wasn't until years later, now with a young adult Sargent, that a fellow neighbor was invited to spend the afternoon. They talked for hours until the conversation got to the point where she suddenly reminded that long-forgotten dream she had, the things she couldn't do, and the name she couln't use. She wasn't melancholic about it though, she was telling it as an old anecdote... Until an idea crossed her mind.
I mean, she actually got what she wanted ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Giving a little insight into the deep-as-a-kids-pool lore of the Aria siblings. I have another idea for a "in case anyone wondered" comic I may be advancing these days, so my profile doesn't look as dead as now. Oh, and yes, Harmony gets some confused looks when first introduced to people. But don't worry, at the point the comics/illustrations are made, jokes and other comments are long extinguished, or at most used to tease him every now and then by his friends.
If you shorten his name it could be pretty badass though. Imagine having a nickname - Harm - growing up! Of course, all the fleur of badassery would disappear once friends learn how you got the nick, but you always could build another case for it, by actually bringing harm to those who wrong you. >:3c

- Okay sir, give me your full name. - They call me "Harm", or simply "H" 😎 - I said I need your full name. - ... - ...? - ... ᴴᵃʳᵐᵒⁿʸ - Excuse me? - Harmᵒⁿʸ - Can't hear you sir. - ... I'm out of here.
Aahsgaahd it's not exactly what my Harmony actually does (he doesn't care in reality), but still seemed as a funny scenario xd

Awww you know I actually really like the idea of Harmony as a name for a boy; I don't even think it feels inappropriate. Less 'that sounds like a girl' and more 'most people use it for girls and realising it's not got much gender to it is neat'.
Sure some jerks might try to use it to be mean, but I can't help thinking anyone more reasonable would just pause for a split second as the name kind of stands out at them.

I blame Sargent's mother. She didn't say, "When you and your girlfriend have a daughter . . ." She said, "When you and your girlfriend decide to have kids . . ."

Now, if this had been Lira's mother, Lira likely would have replied, "Even if it's a boy?" To which her mother would have said, "Of course not, Honey. When you have a daughter." LOL (Girls are like that.)
