Meaning and history

Arron is an English spelling variant of Aaron. Aaron is the biblical name of Moses’s brother, the first high priest of the Israelites, giving it major Jewish and Christian significance. Its Hebrew etymology is uncertain; proposed meanings include “high mountain” and “exalted,” but none is firmly established. The doubled r in Arron does not create a different origin. Notable bearers include American basketball player Arron Afflalo and American professional golfer Arron Oberholser.
