Its actually a cleft lip... Someone with a cleft lip would find the term "harelip" (one word and not "hair", but hare.") offensive. It's basically comparing the lip being pulled up toward the nose looking like a hare's lip. No, cleft lip will not kill someone. Most children born with a cleft lip learn to compensate pretty quickly for the cleft. Children with cleft lip do very well for the most part in developed countries with special training and it is usually surgically repaired in the first year of life.

A hairlip, more commonly referred to as a cleft lip, is a congenital condition where there is an opening or gap in the upper lip that can occur on one or both sides. This condition can vary in severity and may be accompanied by a cleft palate, which affects the roof of the mouth. Cleft lips can be repaired through surgical procedures, and early intervention typically leads to improved function and appearance. The term "hairlip" is considered outdated and potentially offensive; "cleft lip" is the preferred terminology.
