Meaning & History
The first element of this Germanic name is derived from Old Norse mímir "memory", which is related to Old English gemimor "well-known", modern Dutch mijmeren "to muse, to ponder" and Latin memor "mindful, remembering." Because of this, the first element may also refer to the Norse god Mímir, who had omniscient wisdom and knowledge. The second element of this name is derived from Gothic vulfs "wolf."
