Meaning & History

The meaning and origin of the first element in this Germanic name is rather uncertain, and so there are various possibilities to the name's meaning. The most likely possibility is that the first element is derived from Proto-Germanic #aran# or #arna# "eagle" (#ara# in Gothic and #arn# in Old High German). However, it might also come from Old High German #êra# "honour, respect" (see ERARIC) or from Old High German #hari# "army" (with reduction of the "h"). The second element in the name is derived from Old High German #mund# "protection."
