Sergius /ˈsɜːrdʒiəs/ is a male given name of Ancient Roman origin after the name of the Latin gens Sergia or Sergii of regal and republican ages. It is a common Christian name, in honour of Saint Sergius, or in Kievan Rus', of Sergius of the Holy Caves, one of saint Fathers of Kiev, Saint Sergius of Radonezh, and has been the name of four popes. It has given rise to numerous variants, present today mainly in the Romance (Serge, Sergio, Sergi) and Slavic languages (Serhii,[2] Sergey, Serguei, Srđan). It is not common in English, although the Anglo-French name Sergeant is possibly related to it.
