There is no relation between Ayrom'sAyrums and the [[Greek Orthodox Church|Greek Orthodox]], [[Turkic languages|Turkic]]-speaking [[Urums|Urum]] people. The confusion is rooted fromin the lack of the Turkic sound "-ı" in [[Persian language|Persian]] and its consequent representation by "-u". The name Ayrum has various spellings in the English language, such as Eyrum, Eirom and Airom.
