Arseny

Arseny is a masculine name of Russian origin, derived from the Greek name Arsenios, meaning 'virile' or 'strong.' This name has deep roots in Russian Orthodox tradition, with several saints bearing this name throughout history. Particularly popular in Russia and other Slavic countries, Arseny carries a sophisticated, intellectual character while maintaining a connection to traditional values.
