It is less common in modern Scandinavian countries but can be found among Scandinavian diaspora communities. The name resembles variants like 'Aarjen' or 'Arjen,' which may be linked to regional dialects or older spellings. There is no significant record of this name in ancient texts or mythologies directly, but its structure aligns with typical Norse naming patterns.
