This name derives from the Old Norse “Arnbjǫrg,” composed of two elements: “ǫrn (arn)” (bird, eagle) plus “bjarga / borg” (to take care, to preserve, to protect, to save, to help, to rescue). In turn, the name means “the protection of the strong and powerful eagle.” In Norway, the feast day is traditionally celebrated on May 26. The eagle is a symbol of strength and death in Norse mythology. The eagle was also an image of the battle-field, for it often ate at the dead bodies. An eagle was one of the three birds of Odin. The other two were ravens, who was the god of death, among other things.
