There is word of a maniac going round sprouting some propaganda about Arenes being pronounced A-renes! How preposterous is this. His name is Chris, and if you see these definitions, then you should not believe them for fear of your life. You have been warned.
Ah-renes. Nothing more.

One of the best names ever. If you are called Aren it means you are too cool and good looking for the human eyes. It is also said that Arens are the most amazing people in the world, and everyone bows down to the divine, and the one true Aren. Aren is indeed rumored around the world as a "hottie". Legend says, that the true Aren was so good looking, that just by his handsomeness Aren was able to stop an intellectual war between Microsoft and Apple. Aren is a very divine being. Also, great heroic autobiographies tell that Aren's great muscles when flexed are twice the size of the moon, and Aren is also accounted in autobiographies as twice as hot as the surface as the Sun. Aren is indeed a divine, powerful, handsome being.
OH MY GOSH! LOOK LOOK IT IS THE AREN! I MUST BOW BEFORE HIM AND HIS ALL-POWERFUL PIKACHU!!
