Jaromir
Jaromír, Jaromir, Jaroměr is a Slavic male given name.
Origin and meaning
Jaromír is a West Slavic given name composed of two stems jaro and mír. The meaning is not definite:
- Polish jary (archaic) = „spry, young, strong“; mir = „prestige, good reputation“
- Upper Sorbian jara = „very“; měr = „peace“
- old-Ruthenian jaro = „sun“; mir = „peace, world“

In the Czech, the name is seemingly composed from two other words. Word Jaro means „spring“ and word mír means „peace“.
