Lion of God
Arie is a name with deep roots in Hebrew, most commonly serving as a variant or diminutive of Ariel. It carries the powerful symbolic meaning of the lion, representing strength and divine protection. While traditionally masculine in Israel, it has gained unisex appeal in the United States as a short, punchy alternative to longer names.
