O Henry was the pen name of an American writer William Sydney Porter. When looking for a pen name, he picked Henry from a fashionable list of names and the letter O because he said it was the easiest letter to write. When asked the meaning of O, he said the French for Oliver. Thus several of his stories appeared written by O Henry as well as Oliver Henry. (1862 - 1910)
