King and Prince Names Starting With A

Many Russian names are influenced by Greek names, as is Arsentiy, the Russian variation of Arsenius. St. Arsenius the Great was a common namesake for children named Arsentiy.

Though short and brisk, no nickname name could have a more creative image. Comic actor Chris O'Dowd named his son Art, as in his native Ireland it's used as a name on its own, separate from Arthur., coming from an ancient word for ""a bear,"" and used in the sense of ""outstanding warrior"" or ""champion."" A pagan High King of Ireland, Art’s rule was so honest that two angels hovered over him in battle.

A surprisingly rare form of Arthur that rings more Scottish, and lends itself easily to Art as a nickname.

An on-trend, but very unusual, international option for lovers of the similar Arthur. Artan is an Irish name meaning "little bear", an Albanian name meaning "golden", and a Faroese name deriving from Attila "little father".

Ukrainian Artem (ar-TEM) and Russian Artyom/Artiom (which can also be transcribed as Artem, though still pronounced ar-TYOM in Russian) are ultimately derived from the name of the Greek goddess Artemis: goddess of the moon and hunting. The meaning of her name is unknown, though it may be related to the Greek for "safe" or for "butcher".

This name has a nice mythological, historical, Three Musketeers-ish ring.

Artemio gives energy to this august Greek mythological name.

Best known as the the Greek Goddess of the hunt and the moon, Artemis could now be considered one of the few traditionally feminine names that are currently being used for boys. Alternatively though, when pronounced ahr-TEH-mis, it is a valid Greek masculine name – a diminutive of Artemios.

Although Artemis is a traditionally feminine name, the Russian variation, Artemiy, is used exclusively for boys.

Variant of Artemas

Cornish Arthek is closely related to Arthur, as both derive from the Celtic arto, meaning "bear." It would make a distinctive choice for a child with Cornish heritage.
