Off topic, where does the name Arrma come from? it looks like it’s a combination of two words/names?

Dearden covered that in a "recent" interview here:

I think.

Something along the lines of brainstorming and tossing out names, something similar was mentioned, close to "Armor". Little spin on it with the double R back to back was reminiscent of a Spartan's helmet.

Edit: Actually mentions it very early, he is talking about it at the 5:38 mark, so just a little before that was when the question was prompted.

Vaughn Gittin Jr. founded RTR in 2009, may not have a basis for that one!

IANAL but they are different enough, there is the RTR with a visible T in the logo and Arrma has just 2 R's.
They better have them trademarked.
