Variations
Arbar, Arbur, Arbour, Arbore, Arbhor
Imagine a name that connects your child to the natural world, to growth, shelter, and quiet strength. Arbor possesses an organic quality that feels both grounded and aspirational. Unlike trendy nature names that might feel dated in a decade, Arbor has literary weight—it appears in poetry, environmental writing, and philosophical texts.
The name's simplicity is deceptive; those two syllables contain multitudes. It suggests someone thoughtful, creative, perhaps artistic or environmentally conscious. Parents drawn to Arbor often value sustainability, education, and raising children who think deeply about their place in the world.
It's gender-neutral in feeling yet unmistakably masculine in execution. The 'or' ending gives it a classic structure while the nature connection keeps it contemporary. Arbor is the kind of name that grows with your child, never feeling too precious or too casual.
