From the pre-breaking-of-curse Archie Hopper perspective, Henry might have equated Archie with Jiminy because he was a gentle, guiding figure who always carried an umbrella---not to mention that he had the last name of Hopper. MM has pale skin and dark hair, has a last name which means white, and can charm birds into sitting on her fingers, whereas Regina was both his adoptive mother, someone he was convinced was wicked, and had a name which means queen. I think that Henry was probably just really good at figuring out personalities and archetypes from watching the people he knew, though perhaps the fact that he is descended from fairy tale characters also has something to do with it. I mean, a bunch of us probably figured out who certain characters were as soon as they were introduced. I know I did, anyway, and Henry is a smart kid. Even most of the characters' names kind of give it away, which Henry's most likely noticed or will realize at some point
