If one uses the analogies from tuning forks, then it should be obvious. The first harmonic or the fundamental, is the the first sympathetic resonance of the adjacent tuning fork which happens to be the fundamental. And, it so happens that by definitions the first harmonic IS the fundamental. It is not usually referred to as by "the order" of; It simply is the first, second, third.... etc harmonic of the fundamental. A harmonic frequency does NOT imply a multiplier of, but one that sympathetically resonates with the fundamental.
