Best Armenian Baby Names

Choosing the perfect name for your baby boy or girl is a difficult process. You have to find a name that speaks to you and that you can make a commitment too. Your partner also has to feel the same way! Nameberry will help us take a look at some amazing Armenian names for you to consider for your bundle of joy. Hopefully, one of the names will inspire you to the perfect name.

(1) Aram: This male name is an engaging option. It is a popular Armenian name, and is also Hebrew. It’s short and easy to say. It also leaves you with the great nickname Ari. Aram means “height” in Hebrew and will be easy for your child to spell when it comes time.

(2) Nanee: If you like the name Renee, you might consider Nanee. It’s cute, up-beat and has an adorable charm. The only problem with this female name is if mispronounced, you might have your little girl being called Nanny. That’s not exactly a great nickname. Nan, however, is a great nickname.

(3) Nishan: I love this name for a baby boy. It’s a way to freshen up Sean/Shawn and make it unique and special. The nickname Nish is adorable and great for a baby. Nishan is an awesome name for growing with your child.

(4) Ohan: Why choose Owen when you can use Ohan. The Armenian version of John is fresh, modern and a great choice for your baby boy. It has a great foreign feel but is still accessible.

(5) Saroyan: This name is popular because of the Armenian-American playwright William Saroyan. It’s got great energy about it and is a great alternative to the Aiden, Brayden, Jaidens of the world. You want your child’s name to be original and this is a great choice.

(6) Sufjan: Because of the musician Sufjan Stevens, this name is far more accessible than you might expect. It’s a great choice if you like off-beat names like Joaquin or Johan. It’s great if you like names that will present your child as a complete individual.

(7) Zarouhi: It doesn’t get much more exciting than Zarouhi. It’s the Armenian form of Sarah, and man is it way more exciting than Sarah. Zari is a really cute nickname, and it means “princess.”

(8) Nadalia: It doesn’t get much better than this name. It’s cooler than Natalia and less trendy than Natalie. If you are having a holiday baby, the name literally means “born at Christmas.” Forget about Nicole, Noelle, or Christina and go for Nadalia.

(9) Siran: This name means “lovely” and would literally be a lovely choice for a son or daughter. I truly feel it could work for either gender. It’s definitely going on my list along with Nadalia.

(10) Levon: The Armenian variation on Leon and Levi, Levon is a great name and not just because it is an Elton John song! It has the incredible nickname Lev and is a cooler alternative to Evan.
