Harry and Sally I never understood since they aren’t really nicknames and aren’t even shorter versions, they just sound like different names altogether.
I believe ‘Harry’ is the Welsh version of English ‘Henry’, & German ‘Heinrich’. … At least that’s the impression I got from Shakespeare’s ‘Henriad’ plays (H. IV 1-2, & H. V)
