Is 'harris' a slang or formal term?

Is 'harris' the same as hashish?

Why does 'Harris' also look like a name?
Because it is one. Harris is a very common English surname and given name, unrelated to the slang drug sense. Context makes the meaning clear: capitalised and attached to a person it is a name, whereas the lower-case slang term refers to a cannabis product.
