History and Origin
Harry is a male given name, the Middle English form of Henry. It is also sometimes used as a diminutive form of Harold. In some cases, male speakers of Badaga who have the given name "Ari" and have been converted to Christianity are known to have changed their given name to "Harry".
English: pet form of Henry, sometimes used as an independent name. This was the usual English form of Henry in the Middle Ages and later, and was the form used by Shakespeare as the familiar name of the mature King Henry V (compare Hal). The intermediate form Herry probably arose from the French pronunciation with a nasalized vowel, or it may be the result of straightforward assimilation; the change of -er- to -ar- was a regular feature of late Middle English.
Pet form: Hal.
