Strangely, when you google Henry Potter, Harry Potter pops up without a correction. I’ve never seen that before. Usually, it will say “did you mean...” and then supply an alternate search term.

In the U.S., Harry is often short for Harold. In the U.K., where of course Potter is from, Harry is often short for Henry or, by extension, Heinrich.
