What is the meaning of the name Arona ?

The baby name Arona is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced ah-ROH-nah (IPA: /ɑːˈroʊnə/).

Arona is Hebrew, Italian, Spanish in Origin.

Arona is a cross-cultural given name with multiple sources. In Polynesian languages such as Māori and Cook Islands Māori, Arona is a rendering of the biblical Hebrew Aharon (Aaron). Meaning is often given as “exalted” or “high mountain,” though its ultimate origin may be Egyptian and is uncertain. In modern Hebrew, Arona also appears rarely as a feminine name, influenced by aron, “ark/cabinet,” a term associated with the Ark of the Covenant.

Usage rose in Polynesia from 19th‑century missionary activity and Bible translations, and it remains in use there, for boys but sometimes unisex internationally. The spelling also surfaces in Europe as a place-inspired given name from Arona in Piedmont (Italy) or Tenerife (Spain). Variants and related forms include Aaron, Aron, and Aharon; Polynesian spellings include Arona and Aarona. Possible short forms are Aro, Ron, or Rona (the last also an independent name).
