History & Origin
Pedrohenrique is a running-together of Pedro Henrique, one of the most beloved compound names for boys in Brazil. Pedro is the Portuguese form of Peter, from the Greek petros meaning 'rock,' and Henrique is the Portuguese Henry, built from Germanic elements meaning 'home ruler.' Brazilian custom often gives boys two first names used together, and when such a pair reaches United States records it is sometimes recorded as a single word, as here.
The name was never common in the United States, given to only about twenty boys a year at its peak in the late two-thousands. A Pedrohenrique born then is a teenager now, his name a piece of Brazilian naming custom.
