I don't see why not..

*I* wouldn't use it because generally I think of Harrison, or Harry as being it's own name but *shrugs*

Zachary has the name right in it - an r..so why not.

Because the 'hary' isn't pronounced like 'Harry'.

I don't know maybe I say the name Zachary incorrectly but I think the pronunciation is pretty close to "harry"..

teehee 'specially if you say it something like some of the characters in Harry Potter do.

Okay, I have too much of an overactive imagination sometimes, I know.

The H is silent. Edit - Ohhh now I understand the Harry Potter reference. I couldn't for the life of my figure it out.


The 'hary' in Zachary is pronounced - ah-ree

Harry is Hair-ee.

The a's are different.

Yeah,
I guess it *is* a bit of a stretch. I was just trying to be optimistic for her heh heh.

I don't think it works but if you want to call little Zachary by the name Harry then by george, go right ahead!

i wouldn't think of it, but if i knew a harry and he said his name was zachary, i'd be like oh, thats cool.

as a sidenote, i think zachary is a much nicer name than harry.
