Jon Chad: Hello. My name is Jon Chad, but that's not actually my real name. My full name is Jon Chadurjian. Chadurjian is an Armenian name. You can kind of tell because of the J-I-A-N ending. Additionally, that J-I-A-N at the end means "son of". In Armenian, a chadur, the C-H-A-D-U-R, is a type of dwelling, but actually also refers to a type of dress. Chadurjian could mean anything between son of a tentmaker or son of a dressmaker.
