George (given Name)
George () is a masculine given name derived from the Greek language, Greek Georgios (; , ). The name gained popularity due to its association with the Christian martyr, Saint George (died 23 April 303), a member of the Praetorian Guard who was sentenced to death for his refusal to renounce Christianity, and prior to that, it might have been a theophoric name, with origins in Zeus Georgos, an early title of the Greek god Zeus. Today, it is one of the most commonly used names in the Western world, though its religious significance has waned among modern populations. Its diminutives are Geordie and Georgie, with the former being limited primarily to residents of England and Scotland. The most popular feminine forms in the Anglosphere are Georgia (name), Georgia, Georgiana, and Georgina (name), Georgina. History Etymology and origins Its original Greek form, Georgios, is based on the Greek word ''georgos'' (γεωργός), 'farmer'. The word ''georgos'' itself is ultimately a c ...
