No, I think of an 80's children's TV series called Helping Henry. The theme tune contained the immortal line, 'And so we cross the universe disguised as dining chairs!'

No. I do associate it with royalty.

I know a little Henry. Great name. His mum worried it was 'boring' but he's really the first I've come across.

No. And we do have a Henry vacuum cleaner, but I don't think of it when I hear Henry, I think of a boy!
