Noble, honorable, or belonging to the Aryans
Arian is a name with multiple etymological roots, most notably from the Sanskrit word 'Arya' meaning noble or high-born. In Welsh contexts, it is associated with the word for silver, while in Persian traditions, it signifies someone of Aryan descent. It is distinct from the religious term 'Arianism' and the zodiac sign 'Aries'.
