Danish Wyatt Brave in battle English Share Your Thoughts 4 Comments alex Apr 2 at 4:50 pm I chose the name harry after a ferret i had for 6 years, i named him harry after harry potter, i was a big harry potter nerd n he was my absolute baby and i miss him lots. he passed about two years ago now. theres not much i dislike about the name, i think its a good name. i guess the only issue ive had with it is people saying harry styles, but i have nothing against him either so its not that deep Reply Kassandre Dec 26 at 8:52 am I named my baby Harry after my Dad (Harry Kent jr), Grandfather (Harry Kent sr), Great Grandfather (Harry William), Great, Great, Greats. They were all named Harry, but went by their middle names. His name is Harry Klaus. Born on 12/15 he is our Christmas baby. Some of the fam calls him Klaus and some call him Harry. Reply Isabel May 14 at 1:11 pm Actually, the meaning for harry should be world ruler, not home ruler, because my lord and savior Harry Styles is the ruler of the world. #harrystylesworlddomination Reply Janelle Oct 22 at 11:09 am Harry is my oldest. He was named for his late grandfather. It is not a very common name and many people mistakenly call him Henry.
