Arlow is a modern masculine name that has recently gained popularity in English-speaking countries. It likely evolved as a variant of Arlo, which itself has Old English and Irish origins possibly meaning 'fortified hill' or derived from the Irish place name Aherlow. The added 'w' gives Arlow a slightly softer sound while maintaining its short, punchy character. This name fits perfectly with the trend toward short, vintage-inspired boys' names with a gentle yet masculine quality. Arlow began appearing more frequently on birth certificates in the 2010s, particularly appealing to parents seeking something distinctive but not outlandish. The name conveys a laid-back, artistic vibe while still feeling substantial. Its rising popularity aligns with similar names like Harlow, Marlow, and Winslow.

The name Arlow peaked for boys at #2464 in 1920. The name is most popular in Iowa, Florida, and California. Arlow is occasionally used for girls in 2025.
