As a Swede, it's only natural that you should associate Arja with the Swedish word "arg/a" (meaning "angry")! We used to make fun of my friend Arja at Swedish lessons at school... :-) But in Finnish, there is no connection. As for your other association the eyes... can't see a connection there, either.
