I came across this name when watching a German crimeshow last week, which mentioned a (real-life) man named Sewarion Kirkitadse (born in 1955 in Germany; he was named after his grandfather). At first glance, it seemed to me that the name was made to look a bit Polish or Slavic, because of the 'w'- I think the 'original' must be Sevarion. It seems like a Greek name in origin to me, but it also reminds me of the name Severus, so I'm not sure whether it's actually a Latin name that has just been Hellenized (at least to some degree).

Could anyone please shed some light on this? It might possibly be Georgian, according to a German baby names site - but I'm not sure how accurate that would be.

Thank you in advance for any information that you can provide. :)
