Arna

US Popularity Rank: 9372

Origin: Norse

Meaning: Eagle

Arna is a name rooted in Old Norse and German that lends itself to both boys and girls. Versatile and warm, Arna means “eagle” from the Old Norse element Arn- and has traditionally been used as a feminine title. Switching things up in the US, Arna may be a nickname inspired by the masculine French name Arnaud. A form of Germanic Arnold, Arnaud means “powerful as an eagle,” “eagle power,” or “having the strength of an eagle.” In many cultures, faiths, and mythologies, eagles symbolize wisdom, foresight, integrity, and justice, so what better name to crown your little hero than Arna?
