Chernyavskiy (English: Chernyavsky) is an Old Russian noble surname common among the East Slavic peoples, a borrowed surname among the Jews and Armenians (the feminine form is Chernyavskaya). The Chernyavskys are a noble family. One of the most widespread noble families of the Russian Empire, registered in at least 19 Russian provinces, and probably the oldest princely family of ancient Russia. It is also a surname that has deep historical roots dating back to ancient Russian times, associated with the past of the ancient princely families of Kievan Rus or before it. The surname originally originated in the territory of Kievan Rus and spread to other modern countries that were part of it (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, and Poland), giving rise to numerous branches of the nobility in these countries. There is information that the ancient symbol of the family was the Black Wolf.Representatives of the family had enhanced physical indicators, as well as a high reproductive function, as a result of which the surname spread to many classes. According to the settlement map for 1917, Representatives of this surname were distributed in modern Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, which corresponds to the zone of Ancient Rus in different historical periods. At the current moment, representatives of the surname are also present in the USA and in Argentina, Western and Eastern Europe.The surname was especially popular among military officers, colonels and generals of Tsarist Russia, fighter pilots, and generals of the First and Second World Wars.

The second branch of the family is Jewish and Armenian. In Jewish culture, this surname is associated with the Biblical name "Benjamin," which means "son of the right hand." Based on this, it can be assumed that the surname Chernyavsky was adopted in the Jewish community as an alternative to the name "Benjamin," and that its Jewish and later Armenian representatives have no connection to the Slavic branch of the ancient princely family or the nobility, and that it originated with Jews who migrated from Poland.
