What is the meaning of the name Henris ?

The baby name Henris is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈhɛn.rɪs/ (HEN-ris).

Henris is Germanic in Origin.

Henris is a masculine given name ultimately derived from the Germanic Heinrich, composed of heim ‘home’ and rīc ‘ruler,’ yielding the meaning ‘ruler of the household.’ The spelling aligns with Baltic naming patterns that add -s to masculine forms, making it most at home in Latvia as a streamlined alternative to the standard Latvian Henrijs; it is also used as a modern stylistic twist on Henry/Henri in wider Europe and the diaspora.

The name has the royal pedigree of its root - think English kings named Henry and French kings named Henri - yet Henris itself remains rare and contemporary in records, rising only in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Related forms include Henry, Henri, Henrik, Hendrik, Heinrich, Enrique, Enrico, Henrique, Henryk, Jindřich, and Genrikh. Diminutives and cognate nicknames include Harry, Hank, Hal, Rik, and Riko; feminine counterparts are Henrietta and Hendrika.

Henris is rarely chosen. In all, it turns up just 39 times, across 15 countries.
