Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Slovenské meno Elemír je prevzaté z maďarského mena Elemér, ktorého staršia podoba Ilemer je doložená už v stredoveku. Jeho ďalší pôvod nie je jednoznačne objasnený. Spája sa najmä s germánskym menom Elmar, prípadne Adalmar alebo Eilmar, ale aj so slovanským menom Velimír.
