Hanraoi is Manx in Origin.

Hanraoi is an Irish Gaelic rendering of the name Henry, ultimately from the Old High German Heimirich (heim 'home' + ric 'ruler'), meaning "home-ruler." Brought to Ireland by the Anglo-Normans, the name appears throughout medieval annals in Gaelicized forms such as Anraí and Annraoi for kings named Henry (for example, Anraí II). The specific spelling Hanraoi reflects an orthographic 'h' sometimes prefixed before a vowel-initial name in Irish after certain particles (e.g., a hAnraoi, "her Henry"), and has occasionally been adopted as a standalone modern spelling.

Standard Irish variants include Anraí, Anraoi, and Annraoi; related international forms are Henry, Henri, Heinrich, Henrik, Hendrik, Enrique, Enrico, Henrique, and Henryk. Diminutives and cognates include Harry, Hal, Hank, and Rico (via Enrico). Feminine counterparts include Henrietta, Enrica, and Enriqueta. In contemporary use, Hanraoi signals a distinctly Gaelic identity while retaining the pan-European legacy of Heimirich’s enduring sense of capable household leadership and stewardship.
