The names of the 3 musketeers regularly come up in crosswords and no matter how many times I see it I can't remember one of the 4. There's Porthos, Athos, and I believe D'Artagnan was the one who joined later. Doesn't help that their names sound vaguely like the 3 fates: Atropos, Clotho, and Lachesis.

    Aramis is the one you’re missing, and he’s also the one I always forget. I can remember porthos and athos because they sound similar, and d’artagnan was the name of the company my old job used for some supplies, but Aramis is too easy a name to forget.

    Maybe both of you guys issue is that you think of Porthos first, Athos, Porthos, Aramis is burned in to my mind, never read any book about musketeers either and I am terrible with names
