Etymology
Arlo likely derives from Old English or Old Norse roots meaning "fortified hill" or "eagle," while Gray (or Grey) comes from Old English "græg," meaning the color gray, often used as a descriptive surname. This appears to be a modern compound given name combining a traditional first name with a color-based surname as a middle or hyphenated surname.
The name reflects contemporary English-speaking cultures, particularly in North America and Britain, where hyphenated given names and surname-as-middle-name constructions became popular in the 20th-21st centuries; there is no specific religious affiliation or notable historical precedent for this particular combination.
