I am wondering if there is any etymological connection between Aries, (the zodiac sign which is said to be ruled by the planet Mars, named for the Roman god of war) and Ares (the Greek god of war)?

    No, they’re not related; see etymonline.com/word/Ares and etymonline.com/word/Aries for details. (Since the answer can be found by looking up the words in a general-reference source, I’ve voted to close the question as off-topic.)

There doesn't appear to be any relation.



Aries comes from the Latin of the same spelling, which is a cognate of the Ancient Greek ἔριφος (young goat, kid) and suggested to be from the Proto-European h₁er-. Ares is from the Ancient Greek Ἄρης, a proper noun
