Basque: Castilianized form (Armendáriz) of Armendaritz, which is either a patronymic from Armentari, from the Latin occupational name armentarius ‘herdsman’, or a habitatonal name from the village of Armendaritze (in French: Armendarits) in Lower Navarre (now in Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France), most likely named from the same Latin word (derivation from the elements arri ‘rock’ + mendi ‘mountain’ + aritz ‘oak’ is probably a folk etymology). Compare Almendarez , Almendariz , and Armendarez .
