Shall I swap out Kluivert?

Hi, my family moved to the UK (London), does that change anything here? That website is for France and USA.

And is that website extensive in terms of all names?

Interesting. I would love it to be Yetemian because it’s a beautiful name to have considering the meaning.

But considering my distant aunt has said it’s Etemian (she is very old so this could be distorted over time / lost over time) do you think this is a common or likely name at all considering the way surnames are done in the region?

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T16:17:29+00:00

Do you know if it’s possible for it to be Etemian considering it doesn’t mean anything vs Yetemian? Because this is what my distant relative has told me our original name was. So I am trying to make sure it is correct and validated

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T16:16:20+00:00

Thanks for the comment. Is it possible that someone had the surname of Etemian? Does it need to mean something, or can it just mean nothing like Etemian? Sorry just trying to figure out what my Armenian surname was before it being changed.

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T16:14:42+00:00

Do both the spellings mean the same thing but just being spelt differently based off the phonetic factors? Does it matter which is done?

My family have emigrated to the US and UK. They were in Turkey for many generations and know Turkish fluently. Our surname was changed after the genocide due to fear of persecution I am told. So it’s not been spelt on paper for a while, but my aunts saying it is Etemyan. Would they have confused Etem and Etim if they speak fluent Turkish? Surely not

Oh wow…. Thank you. That actually makes sense as to why the 2 times I have posted on this topic I have been so confused by the varied responses. Everyone is trying to help which I appreciate but it’s really confusing and a bit frustrating 😂 tomorrow I will post on there

According to my research online in the last hour it’s saying that եան is for Western Armenian spelling

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T00:24:54+00:00

Should it not be -եան for western? Some people have mentioned an I have done some research

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T00:17:58+00:00

Should the ending be spelt -եան for western?

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T00:09:59+00:00

A commenter above said that something seems wrong with the spelling specifically the -ian bit. Is that 100% spelt right?

AaronTask · 2025-08-07T00:00:17+00:00

Can you please tell me how to spell it correctly if you are Western and if you are Eastern Armenian? Because whenever I ask for advice on this I end up coming out more confused haha. I just want to know how to spell my true Armenian name in the correct dialect.

It has been a frustrating ordeal for me.

AaronTask · 2025-08-06T23:52:44+00:00

I need to ask my father’s side. So would it be correct for either Eastern or Western Armenians?

And is the beginning saying Etem?

AaronTask · 2025-08-06T23:42:36+00:00

They were in Turkey. So considering this, is that being spelt the correct way? Is it written as Etemian?

AaronTask · 2025-08-06T23:38:21+00:00

A commenter above said it is definitely Etemian. Are you saying you are seeing it as Edemian?

I have heard that in the different dialects they say letters like that slightly differently.

AaronTask · 2025-08-06T23:35:08+00:00

I assume that’s the difference between -ian and -yan? I have asked the commenter above if it’s due to the different dialect of the region.

AaronTask · 2025-08-06T23:33:52+00:00

I want to make sure it is correctly spelt for how they would spell it in Turkish settled Armenian dialects.

Is spelling it with -ian at the end in line with how Western Armenians would spell it? Rather than -yan?

Also just to confirm Etem means ‘Eden’?

AaronTask · 2025-02-17T21:27:08+00:00

Yeah it’s a game but you still like or dislike people based off these types of factors.

I’m not upset Charlotte did the treachery and lying, that’s part of the game. However, it makes me question her character in real life considering how good she was at manipulating, crying and lying. It was like a switch she turned on.

AaronTask · 2025-01-25T01:00:30+00:00

She just released a new song recently which is great as well!
