subject Re: Query: Origin of Armenian surnames‏

Try the article "Das Armenische Personennamensystem" in "Europäische Personennamensysteme: Ein Handbuch von Abasisch bis Zentralladinisch", ed. by A. & S. Brendler (Hamburg 2007), pp. 57-66. It includes on p. 64-65 a topical bibliography that lists all serious publications on the subjects incl. etymological dictionaries of Armenian surnames.

I have no access to the book at the moment, so I cannot give you any more details. I analyzed the book recently. It is a real treasure systematically dealing with the personal names of 77 languages in today's Europe.
