Alvar Meaning

From the Old Norse name Alfarr meaning "elf army", formed of the elements alfr "elf" and arr "warrior". Alvar is a Swedish, Finnish and Estonian variant of Oliver. The name Oliver is derived from the Old Germanic name "Alfihar", itself derived from the words "alf", which means "elf", and "heri", which means "a warrior". The name Oliver therefore means "elf warrior".
