Serge (given name)

Serge ( /ˈsɜrdʒ/) is a male given name, particularly common in France, Belgium; as Sérgio in Portugal and Brazil; and as Sergio in Italy, Spain [1] and Spanish-speaking Latin America. The less common female version is Sergine. The name originates from the Roman nomen (patrician family name) Sergius, and this from a more ancient Etruscan name.

The Armenian male given name Sarkis, is believed to have descended from Sergius, a variant of Serge.

Сергей (transliteration: Sergey or Sergei Russian pronunciation: [sərˈɡʲɛj]), is a male given name, very common in Russia because of the popularity of the Russian Orthodox saint Sergius of Radonezh.

The name Сергей was especially popular in Russia in the 1980-s, when it was second only to Alexandr.
