Arvydas is a Lithuanian masculine given name, derived from the Lithuanian word "arva", which means "farm". The name gained significant recognition due to its bearer, Arvydas Sabonis, a renowned basketball player who was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2011. Despite being associated with Lithuania, the name Arvydas is not particularly common there, appearing among the top 500 Lithuanian names for males born between 1936 and 2004. However, it has been used in other countries as well, such as Russia, where it was most popular in the late 1980s to early 1990s.
