"Conjure by it at your own risk."
Rasins:
I always took that as, if you conjure Harry, you'll have to deal with him. Probably an unhappy Harry at that.
Mira:
I think it is a hint at how powerful Harry will ultimately become.. Another hint was in Cold Days, the image Harry showed of himself in his head when he fought Sharkface on Demonreach.. He was not afraid to say who he was loudly and clearly, he was quite terrifying...

I'll make sure to have a cold can of Coca-Cola and some Burger King ready as an offering next time.
Con:
I think part of it is when you someone someone by their true name, you have to have the will to dominate them in order to require them to be summoned. That's why Mother Winter was offended and needed to test Harry to see if he had the will to fight against her will. Similarly Vadderung had to demoonstrate to Harry in Changes he didn't have the Will necessary to challenge the Lords of the Outer Night as was. Yet he was able to with the full power of Winter Behind him.
Harry has gotten to the point where he is able to defy his will against just about anybody and anything. Except possible Uriel and even thats coming close by his fear during Ghost Story at the nickname.
Naming someone requires power over them. Harry has will power a plenty. Starborn, Soulfire, Winter Knight, Warden. Shark Face had to repsond to Harry's challenge of will power and reveal his own name demonstrating that Harry won that battle of Wills.
groinkick:
You know I wonder if it has to do with Harry being Warden, and you ending up on DR if you conjure his name. Perhaps he shares a connection with Alfred that grants a layer of protection.
