Varghese

A popular name among Malayalee Syrian Christians

Varghese, Varughese, Verghese, Geevarghese, Varughis, and Varkey are Syriac–Malayalam variants of the Assyrian Syriac/Aramaic Christian name Giwargis/Gewargis/Givargis (George). It is given as first, middle, or last name among the Syrian Christians, an ancient community of Christians from Kerala, India. The pronunciation from Syriac/Aramaic was naturally adapted to fit the vowels of the local dialect. Many names of this community are a combination of Aramaic and Hebrew names, that have been adapted into the local dialect.
