Bedrosian is Armenian in Origin.

Bedrosian is an Armenian patronymic surname occasionally used as a given name. It derives from Bedros, the Armenian form of Peter (from Greek Petros), and the suffix -ian/-yan meaning “of, belonging to, descendant of.” Thus the literal sense is “son/descendant of Bedros (Peter),” with the underlying meaning “rock, stone.”

The name is deeply tied to Armenian naming traditions and is widespread in communities from historic Anatolia and the Caucasus to Iran, the Levant, and the modern diaspora. As a first name it remains rare, more often chosen to honor family lineage as a middle or surname-as-given name. Common variants include Bedrosyan and Bedrossian; related transliterations from the same root are Petrosyan and Petrossian. Note that Bedros reflects Western Armenian pronunciation of Պետրոս (Petros).
