ArchivesRe: What does my name mean?
in reply to a message by Azmir
Please tell us your cultural background (your religion, the country you live in, the language you speak) and whether you are male or female. If we don't have this information we don't know where to start looking for the meaning of your name.

Yes, that helps :-)
-mir names are common in Bosnia and other parts of the former Yugoslavia and Eastern Europe. The slavic element mir means "peace" (Other names with this element include Dragomir, Branimir and Velimir, for example).
It's hard to get information on Slavic name elements if you don't speak the language, and I couldn't find a meaning anywhere for the "az" part of your name. If you have family in Bosnia still or who speak the language, they might be able to help you figure it out.
The "mir" part definitely means "peace".
