Allahyarov

Allahyarov (derived from the Arabic word for God, Allah)
is an Azerbaijani family name. It is believed that this name
carriers (Allahyarly) were settled in the south-eastern Georgia in 10th-11th centuries. In former times that area was known as Borchaly (or Borchali) , nowadays the Georgians call it Kvemo Kartli and Kakheti.
Due its geographic position as a west side of former Borchaly
region, the Allahyarovs were in permanent contact with other ethnic groups living in the neighborhood: with the Georgians, Armenians, Greeks, Russians, Kurds and especially with the Georgian Jews. This had a tremendous impact on the family identity of Allahyarovs. They are open-minded, very guest-caring and multi-lingua. Due to frequent inter-national marriage between the Allahyarovs and other ethnic groups, Allahyarovs are genetically healthy with high life expectancy above 80 years and with only few genetic diseases and disorders much below the average rate for the Caucasus area.
Allahyarov is now a widespread family name due to the migration of the Borchaly descendants to the Azerbaijan Republic (Baku), Russian Federation (Moscow), Germany (Düsseldorf), United States (Cleveland, OH). Allahyarovs mostly are well educated with more affinity to natural sciences. The Family seal and symbol is a Rose devoted to the most recognized and respected family member Rosa Allahyarova-Lezgishvili (a.k.a. Roza khanim, tyotya Roza, Roza khala, Roza mamida, Rosalie).
