Héry

Héry is a French diminutive form of names like Henri or Henry, which themselves derive from the Old Germanic name Heimirich. The elements of Heimirich are 'heim' meaning 'home' and 'ric' meaning 'ruler' or 'power'. The name has a long and distinguished history in European royalty and nobility, particularly in France and England, where various kings bore the name Henry.

While Henri is very common in French, Héry is a much rarer variant, often found in specific regions or as a more traditional, less common choice. Its diminutive nature gives it a slightly softer feel than the full form, while still retaining the strong historical roots and meaning.
