Harrie is Dutch, English in Origin.
Harrie is an English and Dutch spelling variant of Harry, the medieval diminutive of Henry and sometimes Harold. Henry derives from Old High German Heimric/Heimirich (heim 'home, estate' + ric 'ruler, power'), yielding the meaning 'home-ruler' or 'estate ruler.' When linked to Harold (Old English Hereweald: here 'army' + weald 'rule'), it can also carry the sense 'army ruler.' Though chiefly masculine, Harrie has seen occasional unisex use.
The form appears in English parish records from the 1500s and enjoyed periodic popularity in Britain, especially in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as a familiar alternative to Harry. In the Netherlands, Harrie became a well-established given name across the 20th century. Variants and cognates include Harry, Hary, Harri (Welsh, also Finnish form of Henrik), Henry, Henri, Henrik, and Hal; feminine counterparts are Harriet, Harriette, and Hattie.
