How many little Henry's do you know?

[17caterpillars1mouse]

Just that really. How many children called Henry do you know and where abouts are you? Do they go by just Henry or are they a Harry or Hank?

I know loads of both Henry and Harry, aged baby to 10. They are very common names.

[PinkFlamingo888]

I have an adult friend called Henry and know of an 8 year old Henry as well as a 3 day old Henry! I also have an adult friend called Harry but can’t think of any children that I know called Harry, only if it’s a shortening of Harrison

[BlackberryandNettle]

I know of 5 (under 5 years old), but could say the same about several other boy's names too

[TaggieRR]

About 5 Henry’s and 4 Harry’s - under 12

[namastethefuckawayfrommenow]

I own one. Little bugger

[MotheringShites]

And he’s only ever Henry. Not Harry or Hank. My sister calls him Henners Benners!

[MotheringShites]

Only my own! Nearly 10 years old and still my absolute favourite name! I re-read The Time Traveller’s Wife over and over because it’s what sealed my decision.

DGS1 is a Henry - 14 weeks old!

[MummyGoftwo]

In only know two. I know it's considered a popular name though. I have one girl and a second girl on the way, but if either had been a boy, Henry would have been our name choice! I think it's lovely, but the popularity of it did make me look for other choices before we found out the sex this time. However, I couldn't find any boys names I liked more - so think we would have stuck with it regardless of the popularity!

I'm in Essex and know 2 Henry's. Cute name.

[IveNoImagination]

None

[Sarahlou63]

I have one under the stairs and one in the barn. Fab little suckers. HTH.

[sosieso]

I know 1. He is my boyfriend’s nephew. He’s two and goes by Henry or Henners!

[MeyYael]

Quite a few. It seems to be insanely popular amongst DH's friends and family from the UK (there are just so many LOs named Henry....)

My SIL's son is also named Henry but actually goes by Harold. (After one of his favourite characters, I believe...)

I also know two boys (one a teenager, the other a kindergartenener) named Henri. One is French and the other German, btw.

[BendydickCuminsnatch]

About 5 under the age of 3 and hear it without fail every park visit!

[twerkit]

The Hen nickname puts me off

[Belindabauer]

2 Henry's and lots of Harrys.

[Brie]

Quite a few, all ages. Nice name though.

[ParisNext]

1 4 year old Henry (never Harry) and 1 Canadian 4 year old Hank!

[Proudmummy2MA]

I know one Henry, age 6 and four Harrys aged between 17 and 4.

[LoveInTokyo]

I know of a few little Henrys but I think it’s a lovely name.

[mistermagpie]

None, but it's my DS's middle name (he's 1).

I know millions of Harry/Harrison/Harris's but no Henry!

[stressedoutsuzie]

One, he's just turned 1

[RedDwarves]

Two. One is about 5, one is almost 2. Both are Henry, no shortening/diminutive.

[oobeedoiwannabelikeyou]

I look after a 4 year old Henry at nursery.
He is ace, a right character.
Never rated the name till I met him, now I love it.
