Armistice is an unusual word name with a meaning that's both militaristic and peaceful. It refers to a ceasefire, temporary or permanent, by agreement in wartime. Armistice Day in celebrated on the November 11th to commemorate the end of World War I. 
Armistice appeared in the US charts for the first time in 1918, when it was given to five girls, likely inspired by the end of the the first World War. It was then used for boys in 1919 and 1921, and again for girls in 1927, possibly owing to the unveiling of the Glade of the Armistice that year, a monument built to commemorate the spot on which Armistice was signed. 
 
Since then, it has never returned to the US stats and these days, you're mmore likely to hear Truce used instead. The name has, however, been used in HBO's show Westworld, ironically given to a bloodthirsty robot, played by actress Ingrid Bolsø Berdal.
 
While it is unlikely to catch on, Armistice could make an unexpected middle name for a baby born around November 11.
