excellent choice,

Love it! I only know of one little Henry who is a gorgeous little boy. He has 2 brothers `called Louis and James which are also fine names imo!

Pick Henry! Pick Henry!

Lovely name.

I only know one Henry and he is a super cool 9yo .

Good choice!

izzybiz · 29/09/2009 21:34

I love it.

With Ds2 we came down to Henry or George, when he was born he just didn't "look" like a Henry though!!

Fab name!

I like it although personally couldn't use it as have a significant XP called Henry and it would be very weird to a lot of people!!

pointydoug · 29/09/2009 18:46

you;re a weegie, aren't you?

weegiemum · 29/09/2009 18:45

I don't like it at all. No idea why. Just ..... no!

IWantCleanCarpets · 29/09/2009 18:43

Like it

pointydoug · 29/09/2009 18:39

connotations are too upmarket for me. I know me place

andiem · 29/09/2009 18:36

I have one and I love it and we haven't encountered too many others

CatchaStar · 29/09/2009 18:26

I love Henry, currently my favourite boys name.

loobylu3 · 29/09/2009 18:19

I love it! One of my all time favourites! I really like Hamish as well fimbo although I'm not Scottish!

Lizzylou · 29/09/2009 14:11

Lovely name, my beautifully delicious nephew is called Henry.

Hope you're OK btw Sally, after the other thread went tits up!

SouthernMeerkat · 29/09/2009 14:06

I love it, but we have a double barrelled surname beginning in H, and I wasn't sure about the alliteration. I do know a few though (of various ages).

We used it for DS2s middle name though

MrsJohnDeere · 29/09/2009 14:03

dunno what happened there

MrsJohnDeere · 29/09/2009 14:02

Lovely. One of mine has it as a middle name.

MrsJohnDeere · 29/09/2009 14:02

Lovely. One of mine has it as a middle name.

FimboFortunaFeet · 29/09/2009 13:53

I think it is a very English name. Although I do like it. It's kind of the Hamish of the Scottish world (I am Scottish btw).

What I mean is you are not likely to see much of it in Scotland likewise with Hamish and England.

smother · 29/09/2009 13:40

Hooray!

BexieID · 28/09/2009 22:47

Love it, but DPs surname is Henson.
