Etymology

From Persian آذربایجان ‎(Âzarbâyjân), from Arabic أَذَرْبَيْجَان ‎(ʾaḏarbayjān), Arabicized form of late Middle Persian [script needed] ‎(Ādurbādagān), from early Middle Persian [script needed] ‎(Āturpātakān, “Atropatene”), from the name of Atropates, the Persian nobleman who founded the independent kingdom of Atropatene. Compare Old Armenian Ատրպատական ‎(Atrpatakan) and Armenian Ադրբեջան ‎(Adrbeǰan): the first preserves the Middle Iranian form, the second is from an Arabicized form. For the suffix compare Old Armenian -ական ‎(-akan), from Iranian.
