Arwa
Hello. I was wondering if anyone had any information on the name Arwa. It might be an invented name, I'm not for sure. The person I know with this name is female, but that's really all I know about it. Thanks!

To me it doesn't sound invented, because it doesn't sound trendy or trashy at all. I think it's an African name. I know an African name, Awa, who is close to it, but I don't know anything about it.
I've found the name Aroha, pretty close in prononciation...Of course it could be a short form of Arwen, but I really don't think so.
