Globally, Σωκράτης (Sokratis 
, Socrate 
, Sokrates 
) is a common male first name. The given name Σωκράτης is habitual in Greece, where it is a common male name, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is quite a rare principally boy's, but scarcely feminine name, and Cyprus, where it is quite a rare boy's name. Not in comparison with a country's population, this name is the most popular in Greece, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Cameroon. Much less frequently, Σωκράτης is the last name as well as the forename.
