How about Harry?

Hi! We just found out that we are pregnant with our fourth child. We are definitely hoping for a boy as we already have three girls. Our last name is Potter. Would it be cruel to name the baby, if a boy, Harry?

hi! yes, love the books, not overboard about the name but I am getting pressure from my sister and other family members to name the baby harry or harriet. My husband and I just didn't think that would be a good idea and it seems that most people agree.

Thanks for your input.

This has to be a joke - there is no way it can be real...

Do not name him something cutesy because your family is pressuring you. I liked the books too but wouldn't name my child Hagrid. Maybe tell your family that you prefer the character Hagrid and will name your child that? Be strong, its your baby.
