Kasmir is of Germanic origin, derived from the old German name Casimir, which is composed of two elements: 'casus', meaning 'vault' or 'protection', and '-mir', a shortened form of 'mari', meaning 'famous'. The name was popularized by several saints and rulers throughout history. In various forms like Kazimierz in Poland, Kasper in Germany, and Casimir in France, it has been widely used across Europe. The variant spelling Kasmir is less common but retains the original meaning and heritage of the name.
"Kasmir saw a peak in births in recent years, with 10 in 2019 and 9 in 2022, compared to only 5 or fewer recorded between 1918 and 1926."
