I used to like it alot but it's so over used now it just melts in to the background, for me. Not everyone minds a 'background-y' name though. I just like less used names in general.

Henry is better but then I am biased the problem with harry is it is shortened already and sounds a bit geezer-ish.

Better to have henry and then can shorten if like. My Grandpa was a Henry and everyone called him harry. It suits some people but not others IYSWIM

Boring.

All the Harry's I know are not the only ones in their class or playgroup, so they always have their surname or initial added to their name when teachers/playleaders/children are talking about them.

Agree - very boring and bland.
