Description

Arna is a proper noun — primarily used as a female given name of Icelandic, Arabic, and Sanskrit origin. In Icelandic, it's a variant of 'Arni', meaning 'eagle'; in Arabic, it may derive from 'Aruna' or relate to 'arna' as a poetic or regional form meaning 'light' or 'dawn'; in Sanskrit-influenced contexts, it can be linked to 'aruna' (the rosy glow of sunrise). It is not a standard English common noun or verb.
