    When I read GoT, I've pronounced it like Aria. It's a pretty name.

    I have a Persian friend whose son is called Arya (pronounced Ar-yee-ah). Ārya is an ancient Sanskrit word used by Hindus, Jains, and Buddhists. I think it's most commonly a boys name although can be a girls name also with this spelling.
