Indeed, in Armenia, people bearing this namecan be found at every turn. And this is evidence that it is originally Armenian.

Version number 1
In Armenia, in addition to the very name Armen, there areits various variations. By the way, among them there are not only men’s: Armenak, Armo, Armenchik, Arman and others, but also women’s: Arminek, Armenuyi, Armina, etc. Armenian historians believe that it comes from the name of Armaniak, which belonged to the son of the mythological progenitor Armenian ethnos Hayk (hence the country's self-name). According to legend, Ike was a descendant (in the 5th generation) of Noah’s youngest son, Abet.
