Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Slovanské dvojčlenné meno utvorené z praslovanských základov *bogъ „boh“, pôvodne aj „podiel, šťastie“ a *mirъ „mier, pokoj“, prípadne „svet, spoločenstvo“. Jeho význam sa vykladá najmä ako „Boží mier“ alebo „ten, kto má mier s Bohom“. Významovo sa približuje germánskemu menu Gottfried, nejde však o preukázaný kalk z gréckeho mena Eirénaios.
