Damir is a male given name.

In the Balkans, Damir is popular among Bosniaks, Croats, and Serbs in the former Yugoslav nations, where it is interpreted as a locally originated given name, derived from da- meaning "give" and mir meaning "peace." In Croatia, the name Damir was among the most popular masculine given names between the 1960s and 1990s. This region also has a female equivalent of the name: Damira.
