Unraveling My Identity Through iGENEA DNA Testing: A Journey into the Surname Azizi

Family name Azizi

Dive into a deeply transformative journey of DNA testing via iGENEA. Learn the unexpected layers of a surname, Azizi, and how it altered a life.

In undertaking the adventure of DNA testing through iGENEA, I embarked on a deeply personal journey into the unknown. A pursuit of self-realization, one drop of saliva was enough to take me back to my ancestors, as I sought to unravel the threads of my family heirloom: the surname Azizi.

The process of giving my DNA sample was breathtakingly simple. Yet, the journey it set me on was an emotional rollercoaster—excitement, apprehension, curiosity. I felt like I was rewriting a self-identity I had lived with all my life. And it was the simplicity of the process that was profoundly moving: a notion that within droplets of my being, there lay a vast tableau of history and heritage, of individuals who lived, loved, struggled, and survived to give rise to me.

Upon receiving my results, a wave of astonishment washed over me. The name Azizi, a part of my identity, which I understood to be a purely Middle Eastern, took on surprising layers. My genome was a melting pot—interwoven threads from European, South Asian, and surprisingly, North African roots. I had always felt a curiosity about the cultural and ethnic plurality of the world. That sense of wonder took on a deeply personal, intimate tone.

Through the curated reports, I discovered connections to distant family members worldwide. It was an emotional moment, imbuing me with a new respect for the fluidity and connectedness of the human family. I realized that the surname Azizi was not merely a badge I wore but a shared story enriching and diversifying the fabric of my being.

DNA testing through iGENEA has provided a fresh lens through which I view my family and surname. It brought home the fact that we are a part of a sprawling, interconnected family tapestry—each thread adding a unique color, delicately adorning the fabric of humanity.

This has been an emotional experience, a profound journey of self-discovery and appreciation of the richness of diversity that lies within us, often unbeknownst. It has ultimately been a lesson in our shared human saga and the expansive family ties we sometimes don’t realize exist.
