I've been searching the Internet for this for a long time, but couldn't find anything. Is his first name mentioned anywhere (maybe in the Expanded Universe)?
I've read some comments where people say his first name was Jard, but I can't find any official information about that.
As far as we know, his first name might be:
As far as I can tell, the name "Jard" was created by noted fan SuperShadow, who claimed to be a close friend of George Lucas and posted many previously-unreleased tidbits and interviews on his website1; Dooku's name was one such fact, posted on the FAQ section of his personal website.
Despite his claims, SuperShadow has no affiliation with George Lucas or Lucasfilm, and has never been a source of legitimate canonical facts; everything on his website seems to have been invented by him. Many of the claims posted on his website were later contradicted by canon sources, and Pablo Hidalgo has publicly denounced the site.
1 The website no longer exists, by the way; the supershadow.com domain is now owned by a Japanese company, and appears to point at a site advertising hair removal services
I don't think he had a last name. In our world if you were to say "Queen Elizabeth" or "President Donald" (even though it sounds off) people know what you mean. Of course both of these do have the last names of Windsor and Trump respectively, but if you look at the names of his family it always changes. They may be different from my examples as they rule the planet and have only one ruler to speak of but I think Dooku is his first name.
His last name is Serenno. The planet he comes from is named after his family (because they are the ruling family); this is based on the canon book Dooku Jedi Lost.
