And while Harry was sure he had never heard the name T. M. Riddle 
before, it still seemed to mean something to him, almost as though 
Riddle was a friend he'd had when he was very small, and had half 
forgotten. But this was absurd. He'd never had friends before
Hogwarts, Dudley had made sure of that.

Q: Is Harry related to the Riddles? Or, did he just have a Riddle as 
a friend in Godric's Hollow?

My answer:
If while cursing Harry as a baby Voldemort left enough of himself in 
Harry for Harry to be able to speak Parseltongue, V to be able to get 
into Harry's head, Harry to feel V's strong emotional responses to 
the world, then maybe Harry recognises V as a part of himself?? I 
know I'm not explaining this well.... You know the stories about the 
twins who are separated at/near birth but then feel this really 
strong connection when they are reunited later in life, whether they 
know that there is a connection between them or not? Well, maybe its 
that way btn Harry and V?
