Dagmar (Maria Fyodorovna) is also the mother of Nikolai II, the last Russian emperor.

My mother's name is "Dagmar" and she does not credit her name at all, unfortunately. It comes from the Germanic words "dag" = "day" and "mar" ("mor"?) = "big, great", so "Dagmar" would be "great day".

This name immediately makes me think of the blonde mail carrier in the Sims 2. I'm not sure how I feel about the name itself. On one hand, I think it's a little odd sounding (and frankly kind of ugly), on the other hand, it's got a spunkiness to it.

I like the sound of this name, but it does seem a bit rough on a girl.

-- number1212  11/8/2008

God, no matter what anyone says, I can never see this name on a girl. It's so awful, even if it were a guy name.
