The House of Pavlenishvili (Georgian: ფავლენიშვილი, Russian: Павле́новы, English version Phavlenishvili, Pavlenishvili, from Pavlenichvili) is an old Georgian princely dynasty, branch of princes Mkhargrdzeli, who at their turn were descendants of the ancient Iranian House of Karen-Pahlevi house, a branch of the Parthian Arsacids. A version tells that the root pavleni derives from Pahlevi.
