There are two Harry Potters – revealed JK Rowling

Henry Potter (Harry to his intimates), was a direct descendant of Hardwin and Iolanthe, and served on the Wizengamot from 1913 – 1921.

Henry caused a minor stir when he publicly condemned then Minister for Magic, Archer Evermonde, who had forbidden the magical community to help Muggles waging the First World War.

His outspokenness on the behalf of the Muggle community was also a strong contributing factor in the family’s exclusion from the ‘Sacred Twenty-Eight’.

The ‘Sacred Twenty-Eight’ are the families that by the 1930s were still “truly pure-blood”.

Harry Potter had son called Fleamont Potter, and who married Euphemia and then they had a son, named James.

The couple lived long enough to see their son marry a Muggle-born girl called Lily Evans, but not to meet their grandson Harry.

So it really ends up confusing how should we really refer to Harry Potter.
