Origin and meaning of Mirco

Mirco is the Italian, shortened form of the Slavic Miroslav, built from mir, 'peace' and also 'world', and slava, 'glory': a name promising 'peaceful glory'. Arriving in Italy in the twentieth century, it spread mainly in the north and Emilia-Romagna, where it sounds modern and sporty. Outside Slavic and Italian areas it stays uncommon. Its appeal lies in its energetic brevity and its fresh, friendly character.
