Armenian girl names are gaining popularity and recognition worldwide for their uniqueness and charm. These names contain the beauty and grace of the Armenian language. Armenian is one of the oldest languages in the world. Historians believe that the language reached modern Armenia in the 2nd millennium BC. Even today, it differs from other Indo-European languages due to Armenia's location. The modern Armenian language has two main variations - Eastern and Western Armenian. They share common words but are different in terms of grammar and pronunciation. Classical Armenian or Old Armenian was known as grabar and was used as the general written language until the nineteenth century (1). Armenia was also one of the first countries to embrace Christianity. Syrian apostles introduced Christianity in Armenia in the 1st century and began gaining momentum in the early 4th century (2). Hence, Armenian girl names are often chosen from the Bible. These names are derived from Latin, Hebrew, or Greek. Names like Eva and Maria are common in Armenia. Moreover, names that praise the positive traits of a girl's appearance, such as her beauty or fairness, are often used. Ani, meaning 'very beautiful,' and Heghine, meaning ''shining' and 'radiant,' are popular names among the Armenian people. In recent years, these names have also been making waves in other countries. Parents in the US and UK are considering these elegant yet simple names with beautiful meanings for their baby girls. If you are drawn to Armenia's naming traditions and practices and want to pick one for your little princess, explore the Armenian girl names in the list below.
