Meaning & History

Georgian sources state that this name is of Persian origin and means "angry, wrathful" and "ferocious, truculent". This indicates that Aprasion might be the Georgian form of افراسیاب (Afrasiyab) (see Afrasiab), probably via its archaic Georgian form აფრასიობ (Aprasiob) or აფრასიობი (Aprasiobi).

A notable bearer of this name was the Georgian revolutionary Aprasion Merkviladze (1871-1907).
