  • Golum Is Armenian

    Golum from Lord of the Rings Trilogy is ARMENIAN... I mean he's not Agassi but hey, we'll take what we can get.

    Anyway is name is Andy Serkis, and i found this in his bio on http://imdb.com/name/nm0785227/bio

    His family name, Serkis, is of Armenian descent like Mikhail Vartanov's and Sergei Parajanov's but originally would have been Sarkisian, Vartaniantz and Parajanian (respectively)


    btw, IMDb is a respected international website

      And so is Sufjan Stevens, apparently.

        That guy is a freakin' moron.

        The name Sufjan is an Arabic/Persian name that predates Islam and most famously belonged to Abu Sufyan, a figure from early Islamic history. It has been mentioned in the press that the name was given to Stevens by the leader of Subud, a spiritual sect to which his parents belonged when he was born. [2] Stevens has stated that the name is of Armenian origin and means "comes with a sword," and that it is "a charming militaristic Muslim name." [3]
        his bio says that he was named after Abu Sufjan Muhammad, the great Armenian Sufi warrior who slew ten thousand dragons to save the Fairy Princess


        NFI.

          A crypto-Armenian-American, I suppose.
