Kasimir
Meaning of Kasimir
Kasimir is a distinctive male name of Slavic origin, often associated with strength and leadership. Pronounced as KAH-zee-meer in German (/kaˈziːmər/), the name has historical roots in Poland, where several kings bore the name Kazimierz. Kasimir can be seen as a variant of Casimir, which means "proclaimer of peace" or "destroyer of peace," reflecting its dual nature. This name has not been widely popular in the United States, with sporadic occurrences over the years; it ranked 8893rd in 2023 with just eight newborns receiving the name. Despite its rarity, Kasimir's unique sound and rich heritage make it an intriguing choice for parents seeking a strong and uncommon name for their child. Variations like Kaspar and Kasim offer additional options for those who appreciate its distinctive flair.
