The first name Arvy is of Scandinavian origin, derived from the Old Norse word 'Arvi', which means 'quick'. This name gained popularity during the Viking Age and was often used in honor of ancestors who were known for their swiftness and agility. It is pronounced /'ar-vē/ in English.
"Between 1913 and 1927, there were only 16 babies named Arvy born annually."
