Arna is an ancient and unique Hebrew name with deep and multifaceted meaning. The name derives from the Aramaic-Hebrew root 'aron', meaning 'ark', 'chest', or 'protected place'. In the biblical context, the word 'aron' refers to the Ark of the Covenant - the holiest vessel in the Tabernacle and Temple, where the divine presence dwelled. The name Arna carries the meaning of a sacred, protected, and special place, a space where a sublime quality or spiritual value resides. In Jewish tradition, the name Arna is also connected to the concept of 'goren Arna' (the threshing floor of Arna), as appears in the Book of Samuel II in the story of King David. The threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite is the place where the destroying angel stopped the plague, and where David chose to build an altar to God. This location later became the site of the Holy Temple. Thus, the name Arna carries the meaning of a sacred place, a meeting point between heaven and earth, a connection between the human and the divine. The name expresses the idea of a protected and sanctified space, a place where blessing and tranquility can dwell. As a unisex name, Arna suits both boys and girls, carrying a character of inner strength and spirituality. The name expresses qualities of protection, refuge, and security, but also of holiness and uniqueness. In the modern era, the name Arna has become more popular among families seeking an original, short, and easy-to-pronounce name with deep meaning and historical roots. The name sounds modern and fresh while maintaining its connection to ancient heritage. It conveys a sense of strength, stability, and a secure place in the world - important qualities for parents wishing to give their children a name with rich spiritual and cultural significance.

The name is connected to the Sefirah of Malchut - the sphere that receives and contains spiritual abundance from the higher Sefirot.
