Henrri in the 2020 Census
The 2020 Census recorded 107 people with the first name Henrri, which placed it at #52,420 in the published first-name tables. This is a snapshot of people who already had the name at the time of the Census.
The SSA sections elsewhere on this page answer a different question: how often parents gave the name to babies over time. The "people living today" figure on this page is different again: it is a current estimate built from SSA birth records and age-based survival rates, so the two numbers are not expected to match exactly.

Ancestry and ethnicity for Henrri
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Henrri is Hispanic at 94.4%. The next largest groups are Asian/Pacific Islander (2.8%) and Black (1.9%). These figures describe the people who had the name in 2020, not any inherent property of the name itself.
The bar chart below shows how people with the first name Henrri described their own race and ethnicity on the 2020 Census form. The Census Bureau groups responses into six broad categories: White, Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, Asian and Pacific Islander, American Indian and Alaska Native, and Two or More Races. When a category has too few respondents for a given name, the Bureau suppresses the figure to protect individual privacy, which is why some names show fewer than six slices.
Percentages are shown so the breakdown is easy to read across every published category. Because the 2020 Census first-name file also includes raw headcounts for each group, Name Census can show those alongside the percentages in the legend and hover tooltip.
Keep in mind that these are self-reported numbers. A first name does not determine a person's race or ethnicity, and the distribution you see here reflects the specific population who happened to carry the name Henrri at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

Origin
Meaning and history of Henrri
The name Henrri is derived from the Germanic name Heimrich, which is composed of two elements: heim meaning "home" and rīc meaning "power" or "ruler." It originated from the Frankish kingdom in the early Middle Ages, around the 6th to 8th centuries CE.
The name Heimrich evolved into various forms across different regions and languages, including Heinrich in German, Henri in French, Enrico in Italian, and Enrique in Spanish. The spelling variation "Henrri" emerged as a variant form, likely influenced by regional dialects or scribal practices.
One of the earliest recorded instances of the name can be found in the Frankish Annals, a historical chronicle written in the 9th century. It mentions a nobleman named Heimrich who served as a trusted advisor to Charlemagne, the Frankish king and later the first Holy Roman Emperor.
In the 11th century, the name gained prominence with the reign of Henry I, also known as Henry the Fowler (876-936), who was the first German king from the Ottonian dynasty. He played a crucial role in solidifying the German monarchy and defending against external threats.
Another notable figure with this name was Henry II of England (1133-1189), known as Henry Plantagenet. He was one of the most powerful and influential monarchs of the Angevin dynasty, ruling over an empire that spanned parts of modern-day France and the British Isles.
In the realm of literature, the name Henrri appears in the works of Geoffrey Chaucer, the renowned English poet of the 14th century. One of the characters in his masterpiece, "The Canterbury Tales," is a knight named Henrri.
During the Renaissance period, Henrri IV (1553-1610), known as Henry of Navarre, was a prominent figure in French history. He was the first monarch of the House of Bourbon and played a pivotal role in ending the French Wars of Religion.
Another noteworthy bearer of the name was Henrri VIII (1491-1547), the infamous English king known for his six marriages and the establishment of the Church of England. His reign had a profound impact on the religious and political landscape of England during the 16th century.
These are just a few examples of the many historical figures who have carried the name Henrri throughout different eras and cultures. The name has endured as a beloved choice for generations, carrying a rich legacy and a connection to centuries of history.

FAQ
Henrri: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Henrri?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 10 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Henrri going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 34,275,434 US residents.
Is Henrri a common name?
We classify Henrri as "Very Rare". It ranks above 28.5% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 10 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Henrri most popular?
The single biggest year for Henrri was 1999, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Henrri is about 25 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
How common was Henrri in the 2020 Census?
The published 2020 Census first-name tables recorded 107 people with the name Henrri, or 0.04 per 100,000 residents. That placed it at #52,420 in the national Census ranking for first names.
Why is the Census count different from the living estimate?
Because they measure different things. The Census figure is a count of people who had the name Henrri in 2020. The living estimate aims to answer a current question instead: how many people with the name are alive today, based on SSA birth records and age-based survival rates. Since one number is a 2020 snapshot and the other is a present-day estimate, they are not expected to be identical.
What does the Census say about the gender split for Henrri?
In the 2020 Census sex table, Henrri appears almost entirely male. Of the 105 people counted with this name, 100.0% were male and only a very small share were female. The Census view is a snapshot of people living with the name in 2020, while the SSA section above tracks births across time.
What does the Census say about the background of people named Henrri?
In the 2020 Census race and Hispanic-origin table, the largest reported group for people named Henrri is Hispanic at 94.4%. The next largest groups are Asian/Pacific Islander (2.8%) and Black (1.9%). These figures describe the people who had the name in 2020, not any inherent property of the name itself. The percentages in the chart above come from self-reported race and Hispanic-origin responses in the 2020 Census.
Which group reports the name Henrri most often in the Census?
Hispanic is the largest reported group for people named Henrri in the 2020 Census, accounting for 94.4% (101 people in the published table).
Why can the Census sex total and race total differ slightly?
The Census Bureau published separate 2020 tables for sex and for race/Hispanic origin, and the released figures can differ slightly because of privacy protection in the public files. That is why this page treats the gender section and the race/origin section as two related snapshots instead of forcing them into one identical total.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only includes names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files have no Census demographic snapshot. When that happens, the SSA trend, gender history, and state sections still appear, but the 2020 Census demographic sections are omitted.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Henrri in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Henrri a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Henrri in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Henrri still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Henrri in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Henrri can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
