    The suffix -yan indicates that the name is Armenian. The name means "son of Agahan." If Agahan has anything to do with "Aga Khan", then it might be named after "the hereditary title of the Imam of the Nizārī Muslims, the largest branch of the Ismā'īlī followers." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aga_Khan#History
