It is derived from the Kurdish words ser ‘head, top’ and han, which is a variant of Northern Kurdish xanî 'house, household.’ The name ultimately originates from serê xaniyê ‘head of the house; head of the household.’ An alternative interpretation takes han as the Turko-Mongolic honorific khan 'regnant.'
