Mughdusyan Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
It is an Armenian surname Մայտեսյան. Initially it was supposed to be Mahtesyan (Մահտեսյան), but during Soviet Union there were errors in translation from and to Russian. Mahtesi (մահտեսի) means a 'person who went to pilgrimage to Jerusalem and saw the tomb of Jesus Christ'. Mah (մահ) in Armenian means 'death' and tes (տես) means 'to see', so consequently mahtesi means 'to see death'. Usually Armenian surnames end with suffix -yan or -ian, meaning 'issued from'.
