While its precise etymological roots are not definitively established, the ending "-ian" is a common Armenian patronymic suffix, indicating "son of" or "descendant of." This suggests that Gasanian likely derives from a given name or a familial nickname. Variations in spelling may exist due to transliteration from Armenian script to the Latin alphabet over generations and across different regions. Families bearing the Gasanian surname can be found in Armenia, the Armenian diaspora, and among people of Armenian descent worldwide. The surname does not inherently denote any specific social status or historical event, but rather signifies lineage within Armenian communities.
