Arne is a common name for males in Scandinavia. It can be combined with other names as well; e.g., Tor-Arne, Leif-Arne, John-Arne, Nils-Arne. It can also be written without the hyphen; e.g., Tor Arne, Leif Arne, John Arne. The name Arne originates from the prehistoric Scandinavian word for "eagle" – "arni". The name occurs as a surname in England: for example, the composer Thomas Augustine Arne.

The word Arne also refers to the central stone on the floor of traditional Norwegian homes upon which the fire that provides the heating/cooking needs was lit.
