Klim is Latin, Russian, Ukrainian in Origin.
Klim is a Russian and Ukrainian short form of Kliment or Klyment, vernacular forms of Latin Clemens. The earliest recoverable form is the Roman cognomen Clemens, built on the adjective clemens, genitive clementis, with the sense mild, gentle, or merciful. In Slavic use the initial cluster was retained, while the clipped form Klim reduces the longer Christian name to a single syllable.
The name entered East Slavic naming through Christian cults of Saint Clement of Rome and, in the Bulgarian and wider Orthodox sphere, Saint Clement of Ohrid. Klim appears as an independent given name in Russian and Ukrainian contexts, including Gorky’s novel The Life of Klim Samgin and modern bearers in sport and science. Related forms include Clement, Klemens, Kliment, and Ukrainian Klym.
