Atchabahian (Armenian: Ատչաբահիան) also shorted to 'Atcha', 'Bahian' or 'Atchaba', is an Armenian surname, of mixed Armenian and Iranian origin. It derives from a mixture of an old Armenian word atch, an old Persian world 'abah'. The "IAN" ending is common among Armenian, Assyrian and Iranian surnames.

  • Atchaba is a variant for Turkish-Armenians, Lebanese Armenians and Syrian Armenians.
  • The shortened version 'Atcha' shouldn't be confused with the Indian family name, Atcha/Atchia.
