Why is the story called "Araby"?

‘Araby’ is the name of the bazaar, the ‘Grand Oriental Fete’, held in Dublin from 14th to 19th May, 1894. Don Gifford in his Joyce Annotated: Notes for Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man notes: “Araby was a poetic name for Arabia and was suggestive of the heady and sensuous romanticism of popular tales and poems about Middle East.” Joyce chooses ‘Araby’ as the title of his story because it is the place where the boy craves to go after he experiences “sensuous romanticism” and encounters epiphany.
