George derives from the Greek name Georgios (Γεώργιος), composed of "geo" (earth) and "ergon" (work), meaning "farmer" or "one who works the earth." The name is used across Christian, Jewish, and secular Western cultures, with particular prominence in Orthodox Christianity due to Saint George, the legendary martyr and patron saint of England, and in European royalty through numerous kings named George.
