Arv

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Norse

Meaning: Forest of eagles

If less is more, then Arv wins hands-down. Even though it’s only made up of three letters, it’s composed of orn and vior which can be translated as “forest of eagles.” That’s a vivid picture just on its own. Added to which is the symbolism Nordic and Germanic tradition draws to the bird in question, the eagle—pride, majesty, and courage in its hundreds. So the question is not if baby will soar high, but when.
