AI Salon: What's in a Name

  • Online Zoom Meeting ID 827-4014-1999 (map)

Behind each person’s name lies a story and sometimes, a legacy.  How was it chosen and why?  A popular name at the time? Family heritage?  Close to an ethnic name but pronounceable in a new country?  Some names have meanings that become important to their bearer, others names just carry on doing their work of daily identification with no questions asked.  Today, in Armenian and in English, some names are “genderless”.  How important are names?  What stories do you have about your own name or others in your family?  Join us as we discuss these and other questions surrounding naming traditions and their consequences.


The ‘’doors’’ of the evening will open at 7:00 and we’ll start 7:30. You can join the meeting with these details:
