What's a Henry?

Is there a Henry in the world who could be insensible to such a declaration? Henry Tilney at least was not. With a yet sweeter smile, he said everything that need be said of his sister’s concern, regret, and dependence on Catherine’s honour. (Ch. 12) Is this a reference to a character in a novel, or another story? In Persuasion, there is a reference to "Emma and Henry". Or if JA had chosen another name for Mr. Tilney, like Charles or George, she would have written "Is there a Charles" or "Is there a George"?
