You're probably right in that it was likely shortened from a full name. The top 1000 contains utterly all sorts, culturally and in general

Edit: Speaking of weird names that was used. I can't remember the name, but I've been trying to find it - there's a name that came from a brand of skin lightener cream in the 1970s. I believe it showed up once and only once. What an odd choice for a name

I'd be interested to see what might happen if Ah was used in a popular TV show, myself lol

I can see it. Artra and Nadinola sound kind of cool (and Miss Empire State uses it! So it's like if people say the name meaning is "radiantly successful" and post that on a bunch of naming blogs nowadays.)

That's it! Thank you - I've been trying to find it to show somebody lol :)

Edit: I do agree that Arta does have an edge to it and I can see where the appeal is
