All over the world, เอกอรุณ (เอกอรุณ 
, Akearun ) is a rare principally male, but very infrequently girly forename. The forename เอกอรุณ is characteristic of South-eastern Asia, particularly Thailand, where it is a rare principally boy's, but scarcely girly name. Very seldom, เอกอรุณ is the last name as well as the forename.
