The reason why OHR (Old Harry Rocks) are called so, is because they were named after a famous pirate, Harry Paye, known as "Old Harry."
A different legend claims that Old Harry is a euphemism for the devil (Satan).

Why is the rock named old harry?
Old harry was a stack. Old harry was an old man who drove his ships in. His wife every night stood on the end of the rock holding a lamp out so Old Harry wouldn't crash his boat. One night old harry went out in his boat and his wife was in the pub. Old Harry's wife was drunk and was walking out along the stacks and fell off and died. Along came old harry in his boat and because there was no lamp he crashed his boat in to a millions of pieces and he died to. So that is how Old Harry the stack got its name.
