Henok

Meaning of Henok

Henok is a vibrant male name from Ethiopia that rolls off the tongue with a joyful rhythm. Pronounced he-NOHK, it’s the Amharic version of the Hebrew Enoch, meaning “dedicated” or “faithful.” It calls to mind the biblical figure who walked so close to the divine he was taken up to heaven. Though it’s a rare gem in the U.S.—only about seven little Henoks arrived in 2023, landing it around rank 922—it sparkles with global charm. It weaves Semitic roots with a hint of Latin sabor, filling each moment with warmth, faith and playful zest. Shouting out Henok is like summoning sunshine at dawn, inspiring a life of purpose and alegría.
