History & Origin
Arvilla appeared as an American girl's name from the mid-nineteenth century, with a Latinate sound that hints at Arabella or a '-villa' coinage. Its origin is uncertain. Already established by 1880, it reached its recorded high near 1924 at close to a hundred girls a year.
A woman named Arvilla at that peak would be past a hundred today. The name faded by the nineteen-sixties and reads as a genuinely antique name of unsettled root, which we note; Arabella, its possible relative, is the form parents recognize now.
