معوذ‘Muawwiz’ is a suitable name to keep for your child.

In the battle of Badr, Muaz ibn Al Jamuh and Muawwiz bin Afraa (رضي الله تعالي عنهما) were the Sahabah who attacked and injured Abu Jahl until Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (رضي الله تعالي عنه) killed him. (سيرة لابن هشام،ج٢ ص٣٤٩،دارالكتاب العربي)

And Allah knows best
