📖 À propos Casimir
Casimir est un prénom masculin d'origine slave, tiré du vieux polonais 'Kazimierz', composé de 'kazić' (proclamer) et 'mir' (paix), signifiant 'Proclamateur de paix'. Il s'est répandu dans l'Europe catholique grâce à saint Casimir de Pologne (1458–1484), saint patron de la Pologne et de la Lituanie. La forme ibérique Casemiro est courante au Portugal et au Brésil. Aujourd'hui rare, il évoque noblesse, piété et profondeur historique.
