== Term Variag ==

" are derived from Old Norse væringi, originally a compound of vár 'pledge' or 'faith', and gengi 'companion', thus meaning 'sworn companion', 'confederate'"

This is also discussioned. In old russian language there are many words, which are sound very near (veriazhiti, varezhka) with common sense "spoil, enemy" or "to prevent".
The word "væringi" was described in sagas only in 11th century.

There is good description of variag question in russian wiki.
