Sergy is Russian in Origin.

Sergy is a modern Anglicized spelling of the Russian given name Sergey (Сергей), which descends from the ancient Roman family name Sergius. The root is likely Etruscan and its exact meaning is unknown; popular glosses such as "servant" or "protector" are later folk etymologies rather than established derivations. The name spread widely in the Christian world through early saints named Sergius, and in the Slavic sphere it became especially prominent.

Variant forms include Sergey, Sergei, Sergiy; Ukrainian Serhii/Serhiy; Belarusian Siarhei; Latin Sergius; Romance Sergio (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese), Serge (French), Sergi (Catalan), and Sergiu (Romanian). Common Russian diminutives are Seryozha and Seryoga. The name’s historical resonance owes much to Saint Sergius of Radonezh and the martyrs Sergius and Bacchus, as well as medieval popes named Sergius. In modern times, famous bearers include Sergei Rachmaninoff and Sergei Korolev. Sergy itself remains an uncommon Western spelling.
