My great-great grandfather's name is Henricus, I adore this name. It is classy and strong. The shortened version "Henri" or "Henry" are very nice too and true to the Dutch nature. Love it.
This name is also used in The Netherlands, where it is a very firm top 1000 name (for all ages). It was used most often between 1943 and 1962 (with 1500 births in 1949 being the highest number), after which the name slowly declined in popularity. There were less than 10 boys with the name Henricus born each year in the last 6 years.The Dutch pronunciation of this name is: hen-REE-kus. [noted -ed]
