Even though it has a different origin, I think it could also be used as a feminine form of Owen, since both names are Welsh, even though Owen derives from John in Welsh, and Arwen, as a feminine name, does not.
The name Arwen was given to 115 girls born in the US in 2015.
I've found at least four pre-1937 uses of this name in the Welsh births, deaths and marriages registry. So clearly it is also a bona fide Welsh name.
I didn't know that someone was called Arwen in real life. But I found out today that there are three in Denmark.
There's one in Maine, too. Anywhoo, it is a lovely name.
