"A male given name, Sergey or Sergei."
- packetslave 13y agoSure, I know people who spell it both ways, but in this case transliteration isn't an issue: you're talking about a public figure, the co-founder of Google, who's been in the US (and presumably spelling his name the same way) for 34 years. This is just the case of a writer and/or editor being too lazy to look up the correct spelling.
