Harrie is an uncommon yet intriguing given name of Dutch origin, derived from the Germanic elements 'haro' meaning 'army' and 'waldaz' signifying 'to rule'. It's a unisex name, though more commonly associated with males in the Netherlands. Historically, it has been used as a short form for names like Harrold or Harold, but today it stands independently as a distinctive choice. Pronounced 'HAHR-ee', this name carries a unique blend of strength and simplicity, making it an appealing option for parents seeking an unusual yet approachable moniker.
"Harrie was quite popular as a baby girl name from 1916 to 1952, with peaks in the late 1910s and mid-1950s."
