History & Origin

Arraya is a modern spelling with no documented etymology. Its neighbours in sound include Araya, Aria and Amaya, and the Spanish surname Araya, but a sound-alike is an echo rather than descent. We present it honestly as a coinage of uncertain route (said 'uh-RAY-uh').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, smooth, and modern.

Did you know? Arraya doubles the r of Araya, a name that echoes at once the Spanish surname Araya, the English word array, and the ever-popular Aria - without descending clearly from any of them.
