[Facts] Since no one else has answered...(m)
Here's my guess: The first part, Clodo- looks like it's related to Clodovicus, which is in the user submitted names section. It's related to the Lud- from Ludwig, so it means "fame".The second part, -mer, could be related to the Germanic element "meri", meaning "famous". So I suppose Clodomira could mean "fame famous" or "famous fame". :)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ThanksThank you. That's interesting. A baby name site said Clodomira means "famous", and I'm surprised it actually does.I googled Clodomira and found out that it's also the name of a place in Argentina. (http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clodomira)
