Arlan is a masculine name with multiple possible origins. It may derive from the Germanic elements 'arn' (eagle) and 'land,' suggesting 'eagle land.' Alternatively, it could be a variation of Harlan, meaning 'rocky land' or 'from the hare's land.' In some contexts, it represents an Anglicized form of the Irish name Ó hArrachtáin. Arlan gained modest popularity in America during the mid-20th century but remained relatively uncommon. The name experienced a small resurgence in recent years as parents seek vintage names with strong sounds. Arlan combines a traditional feel with uncommon status, appealing to those wanting distinctive yet accessible names. Its short, strong phonetics and natural imagery associations give it a rugged yet refined character.
