What is the origin of Casimir?

Casimir is used predominantly in the English and German languages, and it is derived from Slavonic origins. The name's meaning is declaration of peace, destroyer of peace. The name is derived from the Polish Kazimierz. The first element is the Slavic 'kazic' (to destroy), but the second element is not known for sure. The Old Slavonic word 'meri' (great, famous) was often re-interpreted as the medieval word 'mir' (peace). Consequently, the name was interpreted as 'declaration of peace'. However, the name could also have the opposite meaning 'destroyer of peace'. It was traditionally borne by medieval Polish kings, including Casimir I who united Polish lands, and the revered Casimir III the Great, the only Polish king who both received and kept the title of 'Great'. The name was also borne by Saint Casimir (1458-1484), son of King Casimir IV and patron saint of Poland and Lithuania. It was first introduced to English speakers in Europe via Germany where it was borne by members of royalty. The Polish form was commonly used by supporters of Polish independence in the 19th century, and subsequently brought to the USA by Polish immigrants.
