The name became one of the most famous royal names in Europe, particularly in England and France, and was borne by numerous kings throughout history. In modern Jewish culture, the name Henry began to spread among Jews during the Enlightenment and Emancipation period, when many Jewish families chose to adopt European names alongside their traditional Hebrew names.
