Why do kids call me "Harry Potter"?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't wear glasses, my face doesn't even look similar to the guy's from the movie. Do they sense some kind of heroism from me? I'm probable the most unpopular guy in school and I always walk alone.

Because you're a wizard?

I remember being called "the ugly duckling" before as a kid. Maybe their adhd made them quit the book in the middle but didn't they realize that the ugly duckling grew up to be a beautiful swan?

You're a wizard, Harry.

Tell them you're actually "Presto" from the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon. lol

That's kinda weird. Who knows why kids do things. Have you tried asking someone?

Do you have a lightning bolt-shaped scar on your forehead? Do you speak Parseltongue? Are you the seventh Horcrux?

Why don't you ask them.

Maybe they admire Slytherin bullies.

Don't try to understand them. I'm yet trying to understand why an attractive friend of mine was called Droopy.

I used to get called Spock for being too logical minded.

In my experience, skinny dark-haired people get called Harry Potter. Not me personally, but it's what I've observed.

Or possibly they're implying that you're a sci/fi fantasy geek. Some people aren't exactly creative with their nick names.

maybe your voice sounds like him =/

Maybe you can turn princesses into frogs? xD Other than that I can't see any reason for the nickname...

Maybe you live in a cupboard under the stairs and have an evil uncle & aunt.

Maybe you have an N shaped scar on your forehead.

Are you obessesd with Harry Potter?

Own it.

Harry Potter is awesome, so you must be awesome too.
