About Dagmar
Dagmar, a Scandinavian name meaning "Day maiden", embodies the radiance and strength of a warrior goddess. Its roots trace back to the Old Norse name Dagmær, comprising the elements "dagr" (day) and "mær" (maid).
Originally a Slavic name "Dragomir", meaning "dear and precious peace", Dagmar became popular in Denmark due to its resemblance to the Old Danish words "dag" (day) and "már" (virgin). The name's adoption by the Bohemian wife of Valdemar II in 1205 further cemented its association with Scandinavia.
