I don't see why not? I like the name Anakin, and I would use that. It's from Star Wars but oh well. If you like it go for it.

ETA: however I like it spelled Arwin, and for a boy. :o)

I love it! But I also love the Lord of the Rings. Would you think it a problem when people think of LotR when they hear the name? 'Cause the story is wonderful and the character Arwen aswell, nothing to be ashamed of I guess.. ? It is also just a very pretty name. Oh and I really like Evangeline, but I'd use it as a middle name: Arwen Evangeline. Definitely works for me!

And the LOTR connotations wear of at some point. I like Arwen Evangeline. Arwen is very usable imo.

It's okay. LOTR kinda ruined it, but it is a pretty name without the connotation. Definitely not with Evangeline, way too much name for one kid. Maybe Eve or Angel.

It's a beautiful name, imo, but I don't think I could ever hear it without thinking of LotR.

Perhaps in a generation or two, when people are still reading the books, but not watching the movies as much, children may be named that. But for now, I think it's just too . . . not really common, but yeah. If you know what I mean.
