The meaning of the name Henry is ‘ruling power’.
Henry is of English origin and comes from the Old High German Heimerich, derived from the Germanic elements ‘haim’ (home) and ‘rīc’ (rule, power).
By the Middle Ages Heimirich evolved into Heinrich which the French adopted as Henri. The Norman-French brought the name to England after the Norman Conquest of 1066.
There were eight English Kings and a total of four French Kings named Henri, seven Heinrichs who ruled the Kingdom of Germany during the Middle Ages and several Holy Roman Emperors who bore some form of this name.
The “Heinrich” names were widespread and extremely common throughout Europe by the 11th century.
When Henri was first introduced to medieval England, the English adopted it as Harry but Harry eventually lost favor to Henry, now the standard.
Famous people who share the name Henry:
Henry Kissinger (politician); Henry Heinz (businessman); Henry David Thoreau (author); Henry Rollins (musician); Henry Miller (author).
