Harris

I generally tend to dislike surname names, but I actually like Harris a lot more than Harry. In fact I don't like Harry at all, nor do I like Henry, but Harris is cool.

I hope this isn't too uncouth but Aris is Cockney slang for Arse: Aris is short for Aristotle; Aristotle = bottle; bottle and glass = arse.

Harris said with a Cockney accent sees the H dropped and it sounds exactly like the slang word for arse.

Cockney has been on a huge decline in recent years with London's rapid demographic shift so the dialect has been mostly replaced with "MLE" multicultural London English, so Harris is unlikely to be heard as Arse with the new population, but it has been a source of humour for me when I meet a young 'arris. No offence intended to any Harrises out there of course.

This is my brother's name. It's very rare. I have never met someone with the same name as a first name.

I love this name. This is my cute little cousin's name. :)

Well I know someone with the last name Harris, but obviously there are a lot of first names derived from last names. This is kind of a cool name, I can see it on all ages too. And Harry is a good nickname as well. I also knew a dog named Haras, which is Sarah spelled backwards in honor of a family member.

I very much like this name, though I can't fathom why. I don't know; it just always sounded so mysterious and much more unique than Harry. I would use this on a child.

Since this is my last name, I don't consider it a first name. I don't like it very much. I would rather have my grandma's maiden name Fallstrum.

I like this name more than Harry, even though they are practically the same.

I don't like this name because it reminds me of hairy.
