Sturdza, Sturza or Stourdza is the name of an old Romanian family, whose origins can be traced back to the 1540s.
The Sturdza family has been long and intimately associated with the government first of Moldavia and afterwards of Romania. Its members belong to two main divisions, which trace their descent from either Ioan Sturdza or Alexandru "Sandu" Sturdza, the sons of Chiriac Sturdza, who lived in the 17th century, and may be regarded as the founder of the family.
Members of the family
- Ioan Sturdza
- Alexandru Sturdza, also known as Alexandre Stourdza.
- Grigore Sturdza
- Dimitrie Sturdza
- Mihail Sturdza
- Dimitrie Sturdza, also known as Tim Sturdza, former multiple Swiss tennis champion
- Ion Sturza
- Eric Sturdza
- Roxandra Edling-Sturdza
- Mihail R. Sturdza, Romanian minister of Foreign Affairs
