About Arjan

There's something particularly attractive about names with an interior "j" and Arjan is a prime example. The Punjabi version is pronounced with a conventional j as in jar; the Dutch Arjan, which is a variation of Adrien, pronounces the 'j' like a 'y', while the Albanian pronunciation has three syllables and is a variant of Arian. A multicultural choice, Arjan is in the Top 1000 in England and Wales.

Pronounced AHR-yahn.

As of October 2026, Arjan ranked #1492 in US births in 2025 SSA, Nameberry popularity #815.
