All over the world, Gernis (Gernis 
) is a rare predominantly masculine, but scarcely feminine first name. The forename Gernis is characteristic of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is a rare boy's name, and the Dominican Republic, where it is a rare girly name. Very seldom, Gernis is the last name as well as the forename.
