"Le Havre" meaning in English

See Le Havre in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /lə ˈhɑːvɹə/ [UK], /lə ˈhɑː(ɹ)v/ [UK] Audio: LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-Le Havre.wav
Etymology: From French Le Havre (“The Harbor”), a 19th-century French clipping of Le Havre-de-Grâce (“The Harbor of Grace”), a combination of its earlier Norman name Hable (“Harbor”) and the short-lived name Ville-de-Grâce, which it bore following its 1517 refounding by Francis I, referencing the supposedly miraculous icon of the Virgin Mary acquired by Cambrai Cathedral in 1450 and known in French as Notre-Dame de Grâce. Nearby Honfleur had similarly named its cathedral (subsequently destroyed by a landslide) in its honor.

Nearby Honfleur had similarly named its cathedral (subsequently destroyed by a landslide) in its honor.",
