Arrow, derived from Old English 'earendel', translates to 'shining' or 'radiant'. This unique and expressive given name has been traditionally used more commonly for males but is now considered unisex. It gained popularity as a first name in recent years, perhaps influenced by its use in popular culture.
The name Arrow experienced a significant rise in popularity between 2014 and 2018, with birth numbers more than doubling from 29 in 2014 to a peak of 111 in 2018. However, there has been a steady decline since then, with 53 births recorded in 2022 and 63 in 2023. Over the entire period from 2007 to 2023, there were a total of 774 babies named Arrow.
