Cradled in the arms of her parents, Harper Seven Beckham looks blissfully unaware she is already one of the most famous babies in the world as the first photos of her are released to the public.
Both Victoria and David Beckham have posted pictures of the newborn on social networking sites.
Victoria used her Twitter account to share a photo of her husband and the baby with her 1.5 million followers.
In the black-and-white picture, David is touching noses with Harper, who is wrapped in a blanket and wearing a pale hat with her eyes tightly shut. The fashion designer has added the caption: “Daddy’s little girl!”
On Facebook, David posted a black-and-white photo of Victoria asleep with the baby dozing on her chest with the caption: “I took this picture of my two girls sleeping.”
During a game against Real Madrid on Saturday, the LA Galaxy footballer sported a pair of football boots with the names of all four of his children stitched on in pink.
On Friday he posted a video on his Facebook page explaining the reasons for naming the little girl, who was born on July 10, Harper Seven.
He ended days of speculation by confirming the baby was named after To Kill A Mockingbird author Harper Lee, saying: “Victoria’s favourite book is To Kill A Mockingbird, it’s a very strong, passionate book and the author was Harper Lee, and that is where Harper came from.”
He added that while most people had assumed the name Seven was a reference to his shirt number at Manchester United, he said that was only part of the reason.
“The main reason behind Seven was it symbolises spiritual perfection – the seven wonders of the world, the seven colours of the rainbow – and in many cultures it is a lucky number. We love the name and we love Harper Seven. We are very happy to have her in our lives and in our family, and it is an amazing time for our family right now.”
