Jerika
This name derives from the Old Norse name Æiríkr > Eiríkr, a younger form of “*Aina-rikiaR / *Aiwa-rikiaR.” The name is composed of two elements: “*aina(z) / *aiwa(z)” (always, one, alone) plus “*rīkijaz” (kingly, royal, noble, mighty, distinguished, powerful, rich). The name means “the one and only, ever powerful.” Although the name was in use in Anglo-Saxon England, its use was reinforced by Scandinavian settlers arriving before the Norman Invasion. It was an uncommon name in England until the middle ages when it gained popularity and finally became a common name in the 19th century. In Norway, Sweden, and Finland, the name day for Erik and Eirik is on May 18, commemorating the death of Saint Eric of Sweden. Eric IX of Sweden (Erik the Saint, Eric the Holy, † 1160) was king of Sweden from 1150 to 1960, Eric did much to aid Christianity in his realm and was responsible for codifying the laws of his kingdom, which became known as King Eric’s Law.

Georga
Jorga
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Geṓrgios (Γεώργῐος),” from the element: “geōrgós (γεωργός)” (tilling the ground, fertilizing), which in turn derives from “gê (γῆ)” (land, earth, country, soil) plus “érgon (ἔργον)” (deed, doing, action, labor, work, task). In turn, the name means “land-worker, farmer.” In the West, the name is known from the 11th-century as a result of the Crusades. The name’s use was extended due to the popularity of St. George and the Golden Legend, widespread in the European courts of the thirteenth century. In Germany, the name has been popular since the Middle Ages, declining in later use. In Britain, despite there being St. George, the patron of England since the fourteenth century, the name did not become popular until the eighteenth century following George I of England’s accession. In the United States, statistics from the mid-19th-century placed him among the five most popular baby names.
Gergo
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Grēgórios (Γρηγόριος),” which in turn derives from “grígora (γρήγορα) grḗgoros (γρήγορος)” meaning “watchful, alert, cautious, awake, quickly, quick, fast, swift, brisk.” The name enjoyed wide popularity among the early Christians, thanks to the devotion to the saints, monks, and popes who brought it. It remained popular throughout Christendom through the Middle Ages and into modern times. A notable exception is the United Kingdom, where it began to be used only after the Norman Conquest, becoming common there and Scotland around the twelfth century. There have been 16 popes with the name, starting with Pope Gregory I (Gregory the Great). It is the second-most popular name for a pope, along with Benedict, after John. Because of this background, it is also a popular name for saints.
