Cottier, Cotter

Having one article about Cottier and Cotter is a good thing because it helps to compare and contrast them. Then, because multiple title are applicable we create the other titles as #REDIRECT articles. I think the best is Cottier as the main article with a redirect from Cotter (surname), but I shall not object if you move Cottier to Cottier and Cotter with both Cotter and Cottier (surname) as redirects to it.

Sergius

Dear Elisabeth,

I didn't put 'Sergius' as a Hungarian name there, but just changed it from 'Sergiusz,' which was definitely a Polish variation. Frankly, I don't know if any form of that name is common among Hungarians, but I really don't see why not. Many Hungarians are Catholics, aren't they? So why shouldn't be there any Sergiuses in Hungary? Granted, the name is probably much more popular in other countries, but why are you so sure it is not used by Hungarians at all? Do you have any reliable sources to support you opinion? ... Not to mention, it was not so much about how popular among certain ethnic group the name in question is, as about local variations of it.
