I sold my soul to Satan for a dollar. I got it in the mail.
Lawrence
Larry’s short so he can borrow money from me, that’s what Larry’s short for.
hahaha, no, really, DrF, what’s it short for?

Oh, I’m sorry.
It’s short so that it takes less time to write on standard forms. This time savings can translate to manny man-years in secretarial time, amounting to real dollar savings to American businesses every fiscal quarter.
Hey! That actually makes sense! Thanks!

My father is Larry, except to the IRS and my occasionally perturbed mother, then he is Lawrence.
My name is Paul, occasionally when I was younger and more perturbing, I was Paul Lawrence. Now occasionally I’m Pauly, but I’ve never been Paul Larry or Pauly Larry.
YIKES! Are you sure you want to admit that?

Also spelled Laurence. My name’s a feminine version.
Okay, we know what Larry is short for, and what Harry is short for…

Barry = Batholomew Garry = Garrison or Garrett
correction: Barry = Bartholomew
That’s interesting, because all the Barry’s and Gary’s I’ve known were named Barry or Gary. I didn’t think they were short for anything.

Harry is, of course, short for Harold.
And before anyone asks…
Perry=Percival
Terry=Terrence
Jerry=Gerold
Ferry=Homosexual
Anything else?
So if you’re Bartolomew how do you choose between Bart and Barry ?
The same way you choose between Bob, Bobby, Rob, Robbie, Robert, or whatever.
And Jerry is short for Jeremy more often than Gerald.
