 WDYT of Harry on its own? As a nickname? 

ETA: Do you immediately think of Harry Potter? How's Henry for a full name?

like the name Harry.

[0o-faerie.livejournal.com]

I like it only because of Harry Potter ;)


Not too fond of it as a nickname, but that's mostly because I can't think of a full name starting with 'Har' that I like.

Yeah, I think of Harry Potter, sadly. :( And I think people will for a long long time.

I like Henry better.

[blosmbee.livejournal.com]

I prefer the name Henry with nn Harry. I'm an avid Harry Potter fan, but the first thing I thought of was Prince Harry of England :)

I love Harry, both on its own and as a nickname. I think I prefer it as a nickname, for Henry (I don't like Harold, and Harrison is a last name to me) because there are other nickname options. I think Harry is really sweet on a little boy, but I prefer Hank on an adult, so I like that it's versatile like that.

I like Harry but I do think of Harry Potter immediately.

Love love love Henry.
I don't mind harry on it's own. I think it's better Henry nn Harry, but most people wouldn't put those two together as the same name.

I don't think of Harry Potter alone, I think of Prince Harry & my cousin Harry.. but again, most people would probably think Potter. (not that it's a bad thing!)

I love Henry. I also like Harry, perhaps as a nickname for Harrison. I don't immediately think of Harry Potter at all.

I like Harry and Henry each on their own, and I don't immediately think of Harry Potter. I do however prefer the name Henry.

i like henry but without fail, harry has always equalled hairy to me. i know that's immature and everything but whenever i hear harry i think he no doubt has carpet shoulders.

and yeah i'd immediately think of harry potter as well.

I always think of Prince Harry. I don't really get the point of naming a kid Henry and then calling him Harry; same length and two letters different. I like Henry better. That usually makes me think of Prince Harry too.

I love them both.
BUT Henry wins. I love Henry!!

[lime-coconut.livejournal.com]

I'm not partial to either. They both sound too fuddy-duddy to me. What do you think of Harvey?

[lovelylittle.livejournal.com]

There was a really sexy guy in my HS named Harry so I imediately think of! That's the only positive thought I have associated with the name though. Other than that I really don't like it very much. :)

[aaww-my-bees.livejournal.com]

I really like the name Harry. I hate Henry though. I guess I would think of Harry Potter.

[memorymaze.livejournal.com]

Harry=loathe
Henry=lovelove

Actually, it reminds me of Doctor Who, but that's because I'm a geek. *Love* Henry.

[blue-suspenders.livejournal.com]

I dislike the name Harry...its like hairy.

I like Henry though.

I love the name Harry. It's my cousin's name. (He's about 3). I do immediately think of Harry Potter, but I think it's classic and I love it. And it's not so bad that I can't get past it.

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

I love Harry!

Usually I think of it as a nn for Henry, but I like it on it's own too. I don't think of Harry Potter, but then again, I never read those books.

Either Henry or Harry is a fabulous choice. :)

[juniorfan29.livejournal.com]

I immediately think of Potter, yes.

I don't like Henry as a full name for it, because I can't see where anyone gets Harry from Henry. Or, why you would nickname a two syllable name with another two syllable name. But, that's just personal preference.


I'm not fond of the name in general, but if I were going to use it as a nickname for anything, it would be for Harold.

I like them both.
