Re: the meaning of the name aramis
I named my son Aramis in 2000. I found it in a book of names and loved the sound of it. I didn't even think of the Musketeers when I named him that. I remember the book saying that the name meant "family warrior" or "family protector". I can't seem to find that same meaning online but that's what I read when I gave my son that name.

I'm guessing they just took that from Aramis being a musketeer. Quite a few purported meanings are derived from the character of a famous bearer and don't really have anything to do with the name itself.
