Ge is Chinese, Dutch, English, Vietnamese in Origin.

Ge is a multicultural name with two primary sources. In Mandarin Chinese, Ge is a romanization (pinyin) of several surnames and given-name syllables; as a surname it most commonly renders 葛 (Gě), and less often 戈 (Gē). As a given name element it can be written with characters such as 歌 “song,” 格 “standard/pattern,” or 戈 “spear,” so the meaning depends on the chosen character and tone. Chinese usage includes standalone monosyllabic names and the first or second syllable in disyllabic names.

In the classical Greek tradition, Gē (Γῆ) is the word for “earth,” closely associated with the earth goddess Gaia (also rendered Gaea/Gea). As a modern given name, Ge is very rare in the West but recognizable through this mythological resonance and appears occasionally as a minimalist choice or nickname. Variants and related forms include Gē, Gě (tone-marked Mandarin), and Gaia/Gaea/Gea.
