Correct, “Iran” literally translates to “Ayran”.

But America is a big place. Americans living in cities probably know a first or second gen Persian, there’s lots of them everywhere. They even have a reality TV show.

Outside the urban archipelago the average person couldn’t tell you the difference from India, Turkey. and everything in between.
