Ayrums (Azerbaijani: Ayrımlar) are a sub-ethnic group of Azerbaijanis in Caucasus. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, some migrated to Iran and to Turkey. At least six towns in northwestern Azerbaijan and northeastern Armenia have been named after the tribe: Ayrum, Mets Ayrum, Bağanis Ayrum, Quşçu Ayrım, Yuxarı Ayrım, Mollaayrım. This is because the traditional territory of the tribe lied in the area between the modern-day states of Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan.
