Isnt it strange a 1986 movie called troll had lead characters by the name of Harry Potter SR and Harry Potter JR then 4 years later J.K Rowling's comes up with a hit book Harry Potter?
It's not strange. Rowling choose the name Harry Potter because Harry was her favourite boy's name. Her neighbours were the Potters and she liked the name. Neither are uncommon names in Britain and Harry is a human not a troll. Nothing is similar except for a name. And the first Harry Potter book was published in 1997 which is eleven years after 1986 not four.
