104 Warm Serbian Boy Names With Meanings

Serbia may be a small landlocked country, but Serbian boy names are not small in any regard. Rooted in the country’s rich culture, these names often draw inspiration from its history and various linguistic influences. Religious names, too, form a major part of Serbian boy names.

Popular Serbian boy names include Stefan, Marko, and Ivan. Stefan has Greek origins and means ‘crown,’ Marko means ‘Mars’ and has Latin roots, while Ivan is a variant of John with Hebrew roots. These popular names show the rich influences of different languages and cultures in Serbia. Some names are influenced by Slavic languages, too. For instance, Miroslav means ‘peace and glory’ in Czech, while Trajan means ‘enduring’ or ‘permanent’ in South Slavic.

Parents in Serbia often choose names to honor their ancestral ties. The influence of the Serbian Orthodox Church also plays a significant role in the names chosen by parents. From saints to Biblical figures, these names reflect the importance of faith in Serbian culture. Moreover, names that reflect glory and bravery are valued by Serbian parents.
