This gives Herrick the meaning of "ruler of the army" or "mighty ruler." While not as commonly seen in popular culture as some other names, Herrick carries a strong historical resonance and a sense of leadership and authority. It evokes a sense of strength and nobility, qualities that were often valued in past generations.
