origin is the surname "Yurkhanov" from?

Question: What background/origin is the surname "Yurkhanov" from!?

My mom's maiden name is Yurkhanova!. The masculine version of that is Yurkhanov!. The thing that has me confused is the fact that she is Armenian and this surname is not an Armenian surname!. I tried to look for it on the internet but I didn't really find what I was looking for!. I don't think it's Turkish and I'm thinking it's either Russian or Ukrainian!.

Does anyone know the origin of the name Yurkhanov!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Origins are certainly Slavic and I wouldnt rule our Ukranian or Bulgarian!.
Most likely Russian though, particularly because she is Armenian!.
