American writer William Porter never explained how he came up with his penname O. Henry. There are a few popular theories: * The Harrells, with whom Porter stayed in Austin, had a cat named Henry that Porter would play with. The cat would come running when Porter would shout "Oh, Henry!" * He took the name from the place he was imprisoned, the Ohio Penitentiary. * In New Orleans, before he left for Honduras, Porter would often call to the , bartender in the saloon and often said "Oh Henry, set 'em up again!"
