Radomir
A Slavic name built from roots for peace, carrying the sense "joyful peace". Still rare in Poland, one most people have never met, but it's climbing: more boys got it last year than in most years before.
Radomir Pronunciation
Radomir is pronounced rah-DO-meer (/raˈdɔmir/).
What Radomir means
Where Radomir comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Radomir comes from two old Slavic roots. Rad means glad or willing, and mir means peace. Together they give the sense the name still holds in Polish, miłujący pokój, which comes into English as joyful peace.
The name shares its building blocks with Mirosław and Sławomir, Polish compounds that shuffle the same pieces around. In daily life a Radomir answers to Radek. The full form waits. It comes out for the school register, for the urząd, for the moment a teacher reads the whole class list aloud on the first day of the year.
There is a feminine form too, Radomira, less common but real. And the name reaches well past Poland: Gavril Radomir ruled Bulgaria in the early eleventh century, back when Slavic compounds like this one still named emperors. The meaning stayed simpler than the history. Rad and mir, joyful peace.
When Radomir celebrates name day
Radomir appears 2 times in the Polish name day calendar, never as a main name. The first of these dates is 28 January.
