Armand Duplantis, Swedish/american pole vaulter.
Armand Duval first appears in the younger Alexandre Dumas's 1848 novel La Dame aux Camélias (Camille or The Lady of the Camellias in English). The book has been adapted numerous times into various forms of media -- Armand in the novel is not so nice as he is in the film adaptations that I have seen. He is dramatically lovesick and jealous, and very cruel at times because of it. In the 1921 and 1936 versions at least he is more well intentioned (and a brunette).
Armand Duval was Robert Taylor’s character in Camille (1935). I love that movie and I wouldn’t mind the association a bit :)
I love this name! I like the meaning and the nicknames (Army/Armie, Mandy/Mandi or Manny), basically everything about this name is great.

Ah, Armand. There are few male names that sound as elegant and sensual as this one. It is not a joke. Armand is an amazing name that I still don't understand how it is not more popular than others. Seriously, parents should start taking this name more seriously. If your name is Armand, it is as if you have a plus that others do not have. Cherish it.

I love, love, love, LOVE this name. It reminds me of the character of Armand from the Vampire Chronicles (mentioned above), whom I adore, and I also love it's pronunciation. And even the way it looks when written down! I may use it on a future son, and I'm surprised it's not more popular!

It is a common urban legend that the brand name, Arm & Hammer, originated with or is related to him, as Hammer did own some stock in the company and served on its Board of Directors in the '80's.
