Origin:Swedish
Other Origin(s):German
Meaning:Home ruler
Henrika is a super-sweet Swedish name for girls. Taken from the German Haimirich, this three-syllable gem means “home ruler” and might do if your kiddo knows they’re head of the house. While home is where the heart is for Henrika, it's bound to be a hit across the cosmos, too. In 1916, a carbonaceous asteroid—later christened 826 Henrika—was discovered by German astronomer Max Wolf and is still in observation to this day. The stars are the limit for this stay-at-home name!
