Varduhi Pronunciation
What Varduhi means
Where Varduhi comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Varduhi comes from Armenian. The name joins two parts: vard, meaning rose, and the feminine suffix -uhi, roughly "lady." Read together, it means something like rose-woman.
Armenian vard reaches back to an old Iranian root, wṛda-. That same root fed Greek rhodon and Latin rosa. A Polish reader meets the flower daily in the word róża, probably without noticing the link. In Armenian, vard is still the ordinary word for rose. The rose sits inside all of them.
Varduhi belongs to a group of Armenian names built on -uhi, which marks women. The element vard also stands inside the man's name Vardan. Girls still receive Varduhi in Armenia and across the diaspora. The flower here is no ornament. It gave the name its one plain meaning: rose, róża in Polish.
