Srđan (); ; ; ) is a Serbo-Croatian masculine given name, usually written as Srdjan when the letter đ is unavailable.
It is usually considered to be a form of the name Sergius, honoring the Christian martyr and saint Sergius. In South Slavic, the saints Sergius and Bacchus are called "Sveti Srđ i Sveti Vlaho" or "Srđevdan". Another popular etymology derives it from the Serbo-Croatian verb "srditi" which means being angry, fiery or ardent. Alternatively it may derive from adjective "srdačan" which means having a good heart.
