Origin:German
Meaning:people's friend
Arwin is a boy’s name of German origin, meaning “people’s friend.” With a variant of the name being Arwen, this gorgeous moniker is made for the parent looking to subtly pass on their The Lord of the Rings dreams. But besides this association, chances are that in the United States, you may not have come across an Arwin before. The name comes from the old German word winiz, meaning “friend,” hence the name’s definition. But even without the famous Tolkien series at your back, the name Arwin is distinctive and comes with the cute nickname Winni!
