Are Princes William and Harry named after William the Conquer and Harold Godwinson?

William was named after Prince William of Gloucester, his father's 7-years older cousin and personal hero, who died in 1972 in an aeroplane crash, due to an overheated engine. As for Harry I am not quite sure, through his maternal grandfather, Prince Harry is descended from King Henry IV of France so that is a possibility as he was born with the name Henry Charles Albert David.
