With all due respect, the statement that There is a common misconception that the capital city of Bulgaria – Sofia, is named after Saint Sophia the Martyr. (...) The area is in fact named after an ancient Celtic tribe called the "serdi" makes no sense at all. What else is it named after? The Bulgarian capital Sofia is in fact precisely named after the church of Saint Sophia, the second oldest church in Sofia, dating to the 6th century.
See Sofia#History and Saint Sofia Church, Sofia: In the 14th century, the church gave its name to the city, previously known as Sredets (Средец). The old name Sredets is derived from the ancient name of the city Serdica (or Sardica), but, even with a minimal understanding of etymology, you can see that Sofia cannot possibly be derived from Serdica.
