Harri Origin and Meaning
Harri is a masculine name with multiple cultural connections. It functions as a Finnish and Estonian form of Henry (meaning "home ruler"), and also appears as a Welsh variant of Harry. In Scandinavian countries, it's a legitimate standalone name rather than just a nickname. The name has moderate popularity in Finland, Wales, and other parts of Northern Europe, though it remains uncommon in North America. Harri has a friendly, approachable quality while maintaining multicultural versatility. Its compact form and clear pronunciation make it practical across language boundaries. The double 'r' gives it a distinctive written appearance compared to the more common Harry.
