  • List of Armenian names...



    Some of my favorites:

    - Baghdasar: From Assyrian name Baltasar which means "bliss" or "secretly collecting". The short forms are Baghdik, Baghdo, Bghdeh, Paghdik etc. We also have the surnames Baghdasaryan, Baghdoyan.

    - Eduard: From French name Edouard which means "property watcher", "watchman". It came by means of literature. The short forms are Edvard, Edik.

    - Ishkhan: From Armenian ishkhan "prince". The diminutive form is Ishkhanik; the corresponding surname is Ishkhanyan. (I always liked this name.)

    - Lentrush: Is formed from the first letters of the names of Lenin and his revolutionary inheritors. Later it changed into Lendrosh (Lenin+drosh "flag").

    ARMEN: Is the short form of Armenian name Armenak, has no connection with armen "Armenian" or "Armenia". It is often met as well as the surname Armenyan.

    Close thread.

    By the way, you know my name is the ROOT of "Armenia"!

              He was born here, but his parents are from Egypt??

              don't know any Adelaida's, but I may have heard it in a movie or something.

              The only Adelaid I know is the city in South Australia LOL

                Yeah, it's the Western Armenian variant.

                I still would like to visit Adelaide.
