Harriman=Rwandese

I am at the ticket counter in Kigali checking in and the gentleman behind the counter asks me with a curious smile, "Your name is Harriman?"
I respond somewhat puzzled, "Yes."
He just laughs at me.
I assume he is laughing at my name because it is strange to him.
He finally says, "You know Harriman is Rwandese."
I said, "What?"
He says again, "Harriman is Rwandese."
I wanted to be sure I understood so I asked, "Do you mean that the word Harriman when translated means 'Rwandese'?"
He says, "Yes" with a big smile!

My Rwandese baby will have a very appropriate surname!
