Meaning: Ever ruler; Ever powerful

Aaric is a modern and noble boy’s name of Old Norse origin. It means “ever ruler” or “ever powerful,” both of which set baby up to be a wise and just leader. This meaning, combined with Aaric’s Old Norse roots, gives it an exciting Viking association that will imbue baby with a thirst for adventure. Aaric is a great choice if you’re Scandinavian and want to honor your heritage or if you like the name Eric but want something a little more unusual to distinguish baby on the playground.
