Harry is old English, meaning "Army-man."

It also shares roots with Harold, with in Norse means "Army-ruler."

it also shares roots with Henry, which means "estate ruler." Henry is Norman.

given those shared roots, Harry is usually said to mean "home ruler."

so, Harry is Norse, then the name was passed down in to Old English, and to Norway.
