Damir
Slavic origin
“From Slavic and Persian roots, Damir combines 'dar' (to give/pearl) with 'mir' (peace/world), meaning 'one who gives peace' or 'pearl of peace.' Popular across Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and Persian-speaking regions, it carries both gentleness and strength with deep cultural resonance.”
