What is the meaning of the name Sergi ?

The baby name Sergi is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced Catalan: /ˈsɛr.ʒi/ (approx. 'SER-zhi'); English approximation: /ˈsɜr.dʒi/ ("SER-jee").

Sergi is Catalan in Origin.

Sergi is the Catalan (and also Georgian) form of the ancient Roman name Sergius. The root likely goes back to Etruscan, so its precise meaning is uncertain; later Latin-based explanations link it to servare “to protect/save” or to the idea of a “servant/attendant,” but these are speculative. Pronounced SEHR-zhee in Catalan, Sergi has long been favored in Catalan-speaking regions.

Use spread through Christian Europe via veneration of saints named Sergius, including the soldier-martyrs Sergius and Bacchus and, in the East, St. Sergius of Radonezh, which also underlies the popularity of the Russian form. International variants include Sergio (Spanish, Italian), Sérgio (Portuguese), Sergiu (Romanian), Serge (French), Sergej (Slavic), Sergei/Sergey (Russian), Serhii/Serhiy (Ukrainian), and Sergius (Latin). In modern Catalonia the name rose in the late 20th century, helped by public figures such as tennis champion Sergi Bruguera and actor Sergi López.
