Why are they called aryans?
I'm a little confused because they're supposed to be blonde hair blue eyes according to the nazis but there's also indo-aryans which are indian people so what does aryan actually mean.

Just like Semites are peoples who speak Semitic languages, and can be as dark as an Ethiopian or as light as a Syrian, Indo-Europeans are people who speak Indo-European languages. Both groups are not races, the only thing that brings the together is their language family. Hitler was mostly wrong about what he thought Aryans were. He even copied the Swatsika wrong.

It's a term Hitler coopted to describe his ideal German. He chose the word because it means Noble.
