Like a lot of English names, this one is starting to become popular in Brazil. I think because of its use in American shows and movies, and also as a variant of the Portuguese form Henrique.https://censo2010.ibge.gov.br/nomes/#/search/response/240

Henry and related names must have been VERY popular in Europe and Scandinavia a few generations ago.
While looking at our family tree, my partner and I found out we have multiple ancestors with the name.
(He's Norwegian and I'm Australian of English/Dutch/Danish descent.)
To name a few: His grandfather had Henry as his second name.
And my English great grandparents were Henry and Henrietta!I'm considering giving the name to my future son!
Usage: English, Swedish (Modern)
Pronounced: HEHN-ree (English), HEHN-ruy (Swedish)
