That's what it's been transcribed as. I'm trying to find a corresponding birth.

It does look like Horace, but not sure about the surname.

[kiterunner]

I wonder whether he could be connected with either of these families from the 1891 census?

Ah, there is a Matthew Horace Dulley birth registered Oct-Dec 1883 Windsor district, which would be the district for Egham. I wonder whether that's him?

[kiterunner]

This could be Horace in 1911:

Lewisham, London
Louis Dulley Wife 64 Married 42 yrs, 12 children, 11 living, 1 died Harrow
Horace Dulley Son 28 Single Grocer Egham Surrey
Alice Dulley Daughter 39 Single Assist in House Paddington London

There is a marriage for Matthew H Dulley in 1912 in Lewisham so looks likely to be the same person, don't you think?

[kiterunner]

This is the family in 1891:
