Ew.
A "hairy reginald" just sounds disgusting. Bleh.
Oh no. I sincerely am home alone just laughing my head off at that.

L. O. L. !
It sounds so lewd, doesn't it?
...and I'm actually deleting my message because it sounded a bit too vulgar, despite not meaning anything.

It sounds lewd to me because it's a cross between "regiment" and "genital." Gesticulation also sounds awkward to me because it is genital + sticky + masturbation.
I also feel very silly giggling about this on the internet D:

What adjective does Harry sound like? I don't get it...
Hairy.
Really?
It must be the accent or something...Harry and Hairy sound absolutely nothing alike in my accent.

In the North it doesn't sound like Hairy
but down here it is Hairy and my sister Sarah is Saira. Up north he is Harry and she is Sarah, as it should be - but to me it is "hairy." Very very much.
Still, it seems like an adjective that is v. close to Harry in the north accent, IMO at least.

I'm from the Northeast. I understand how Harry could sound like Hairy, but to me they sound distinctively different.
Harry = Hah-ree (like, the beginning of the word "half")
Hairy = Hayhr-ee (rhymes with bear)
Sarah = Sah-rah
Funny how it varies so much from region to region, not just country to country!

Sarah and Harry sound completely different in my accent
I say Sarah like SARE-ah (rhymes with HAIR-ah :-p) and Harry with the short a like the a in attic. HA-ree and SAIR-ah.
How does the pronunciation of Sarah vary from north to south?

The a in attic sounds like
the a in Harry to me. What does the a in attic sound like to you?
Pronunciations in different accents confound me.
Sarah and Harry both have a sound like "hair" in my ear.

Its a short a, like at-tic whereas the a in Sarah is long, like SAIR-ah. Harry is a short a as well, like HA-ree. I really need to record myself saying these and then post it...

Just to add
That is a video file because that's all my phone does and I don't know how to convert it to just a sound file. There is only sound on the video though, no image

What does the a in attic sound like to you?
Like the A in apple, cat, Radcliffe, yak, etc.
Hairy, though--more of an "ay" sound, you know?

This Northerner says no, it does.
It's in the East that they say Haarry, like the A in attic. That sound doesn't exist before the letter R in Midwestern accents. ^^;;
Array (her sister is a SARE-uh, too)

North-east, then.
In my family we refer to northeast as "north" because it's directly above us.
edit: incorrectly. We refer incorrectly.

Ditto, they sound totally different in my accent...
but on TV it's always "hairy". *shrug*

In the US they're almost identical
Hence Seamse's Streets play on words with "Hairy" Monster.

Not even 'almost' for me.
They're the same word phonetically when I hear/say them.

For middle names, you mean? How about...
Harry Arthur
Harry Thomas
Harry Oscar
Harry Christopher
Harry Christian (which sounds a bit too much like an adjective and a noun when put together...)
Harry Frederick
Harry Richard
Harry Ernest
Harry Jocelyn
Harry George
Might any of those fit?
