Boy name · 9 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Damir: 9 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to boys, peaking at 3 births in 2019.

Damir is primarily a masculine name of Slavic origin, derived from the elements "dati" (to give) and "mir" (peace or world), meaning "giver of peace" or "world-giver." It also has roots in the Arabic name Damir (ضمير), meaning "conscience" or "heart." A notable bearer is Damir Doma, the acclaimed Croatian-born fashion designer known for his minimalist, avant-garde style. In sports, Damir Skomina is a renowned Slovenian football referee who officiated at major tournaments including the UEFA Champions League final. While Damir has no direct Scottish place connections, its Slavic roots tie it to places like Damir in modern-day Bosnia. The name gained modest popularity in Scotland during the 2000s, reflecting the nation's growing multicultural influence.
