Origin and meaning of Sergio

Sergio descends from the Latin Sergius, the name of the ancient Roman gens Sergia, perhaps of Etruscan origin; tradition links it to the idea of 'guardian, servant'. Classical yet understated, it is widespread in Italy and equally loved in Spain, Portugal and Latin America. Through the twentieth century it ranked among the most common Italian boys' names. It keeps a solid, manly charm recognisable across the Romance languages.
