High valley or altar of stone
Derived from the Aragon River in Spain, the name's etymology likely stems from the Basque word 'aran' meaning valley or the pre-Roman 'ara' meaning altar. It is famously associated with the medieval Kingdom of Aragon and the Crown of Aragon. In modern contexts, it is often chosen for its regal, historical weight and its similarity to popular fantasy literature names.
