Нарам-Суэн
The choronym of the name Aram refers to the geographical region in which they lived and means "High(landers)". The toponym "A-ra-mu" appears in an inscription at the East Semitic speaking kingdom of Ebla listing geographical names, and the term "Armi", which is the Eblaite term for nearby Idlib, occurs frequently in the Ebla tablets (c. 2300 BCE). One of the annals of Naram-Sin of Akkad (c. 2250 BCE) mentions that he captured "Dubul, the ensí of "A-ra-me"" ("Arame" is seemingly a genitive form), in the course of a campaign against Simurrum in the northern mountains. Other early references to a place or people of "Aram" have appeared at the archives of Mari (c. 1900 BCE) and at Ugarit (c. 1300 BCE). The terms "Aram" and "Aramean" frequently occur in the letters of a governor's archive from Nippur. The written text informed about farmers from "Bīt-Aram" referring to the region of Aram.
