Radomir (Cyrillic script: Радомир) is a Slavic origin given name. The etymology of the original form of the name, Radomer, is from rat - old Slavonic for war - and mer "merit, ability", i.e. "able warrior". However, modern popular understanding in most Slavic languages would link the name to rad "care, joy, love" and mir "peace, world, fame". Feminine form: Radomira. Nicknames: Radek, Radko, Mirek, Mirko, Rado, Racho, Radka (f), Mirka (f). The usual nickname derived from Radomir is Rasha. The name is very popular in Bulgaria and Serbia.
