Maybe: In honor to?
Backwards, it would be: Em honra de.

If this is the kind of thing that is said in a phrase like "This monument was built in honour of the soldiers who died in the battle of XYZ," it should be "in honour of" (or "in honor of" ). I cannot think of a context where it would be "in honour to".

I can see that this is more then I've been thinking. My only doubt about this phrase is that AO means TO someone or something, and not OF, but of course I can be wrong.

What's the difference between Honor and Honour?

Honor is American English whilst Honour is British English

You really can't translate prepositions out of context, because certain prepositions go with certain verbs, adjectives, and nouns; for example, here are a few that cause problems:

listen to
depend on
married to
in respect to
in honour of
etc., etc., etc. ...

I think in honour of is right.

"Em honra ao" means literally "In honour of the" (including a definite article), there clearly is something missing at the end of the sentence. But I think all in all this translation is correct.

to Guilon:
I chose not to include a definite article in the English version since the continuation of the sentence in Portuguese in unknown and could just as easily be "em honra ao meu pai/meu nome/meu amigo etc." and in that case, it would not be followed by a definite article in English.
