Nakchivanski (Russian: Нахичеванский, Azerbaijani: Naxçıvanskilər) or Nakhitchevansky is an Azerbaijani noble family. They have provided famous generals and military persona, one of them - Huseyn Khan Nakhchivanski was the only Muslim to serve as General-Adjutant of the H.I.M. Retinue.

Background

Nakhchivanski family is a cadet branch of Kangarli dynasty, itself a part of Ustajlu Qizilbash tribe. Ehsan Khan Kangarli was the first member of the dynasty to adopt Russified surname, thus establishing his own branch. They were intermarried with Bahmani family of Qajar dynasty and Makinsky family of Maku Khanate. They were largest landowners in Nakhchivan uyezd.[1]

Nowadays

After Soviet takeover of Azerbaijan, Christian members of Nakhchivanski family mostly emigrated to Europe and beyond, while Muslim members stayed back and changed their surnames in order to flee persecution, such as famous opera singer Khurshid Qajar, who adopted her husband's surname even after his death; or immigrated to Iran to serve in Qajar Army. A Christian branch descended from Huseyn Khan Nakhchivanski lives in United States of America.[2]
