Mirna (Croatian "Mirna"; Serbian "Мирна") is a female name common among Croats and Serbs. Derived from the Slavic element mir, Mirna means "peaceful." It is often confused with the name "Myrna"(/myrrhna/), which is not Slavic in origin, but Celtic and means "beloved" and also "tender." In Circassian culture, Mirna means "This Eye": "Mir" stands for "this" and "Na" stands for "Eye".
