This is not up for discussion for this single article, as it's a Wikipedia-wide standard. We can move the discussion to the US places project, but I doubt anyone wants to rewrite their bot just to delete it, so upon no complaints, I'll change it back again.

According to the article,
The new town was named "Arlington" after Lord Henry Arlington, member of the cabinet of King Charles II of England. [1]
Any idea why it would be named for a 17th-century English personage than, say, for another American Arlington such as Arlington, Massachusetts, or Arlington, Virginia, as are most other American Arlingtons? — AjaxSmack 16:51, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

Prior to American settlement in the 19th century, the Puget Sound region was primarily inhabited by many indigenous Coast Salish peoples. The Stillaguamish, a Lushootseed-speaking people, had prominent villages along the two forks of the Stillaguamish River where they followed fish runs, with other tribes in the area, such as the Skagit, Snohomish, Sauk-Suiattle, and Swinomish, using the area for fishing, hunting, and gathering. The name for this area is stiqayuʔ, meaning "wolf," on account of a story that there was a large wolf living on a hill south of the modern settlement. The Stillaguamish had a village located at Arlington, which was called Skabalko ( Lushootseed: sq̓ʷuʔalqʷuʔ), owing its name to the confluence of the rivers. It was located on the north bank of the Stillaguamish River, at the joining of its two forks, where a farm now stands. In the village, there were two large winter longhouses, and at least 200-300 people lived there. The neighborhood of Kent Prairie, known in Lushootseed as xʷbaqʷab, was once a flourishing prairie where the women of the tribe would collect berries, grasses, roots, and other materials.

1. The Sauk had no camp at Arlington, no source I can find mentioned this. The territory of the Sauk-Suiattle was on the Sauk and Suiattle rivers, out past Darrington. The Sauk and many other tribes would likely visit the village during migratory seasons, but there were no other permanent settlements of other tribes.
2. The prairies was a gathering ground, not a settlement, according to the Stillaguamish About Us page.
3. The village was at Skabalko, according to every source. Stiqiyu is what the area around Arlington was called, according to Tracy Boser, who is the Stillaguamish Cultural Resource Specialist. This is from this Herald Article.
