What is the meaning of the name Krunoslav ?

The baby name Krunoslav is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced IPA: /ˈkruːnoslav/; respelling: KROO-noh-slahv.

Krunoslav is in Origin.

Krunoslav is a South Slavic masculine given name of Croatian provenance, built from kruna “crown” (from Proto‑Slavic *koruna, ultimately Latin corona) and slav/slava “glory, fame.” The compound conveys senses such as “crowned glory,” “glory of the crown,” or “one who brings honor to the crown.” It sits within the wider -slav naming tradition common across Slavic languages (cf. Miroslav, Stanislav), yet Krunoslav itself is most characteristic of Croatia and neighboring regions.

Documented in late 19th‑century records and gaining broader use through the 20th century, the name has been borne by Croatian athletes and artists, lending it a modern, homegrown feel. Common short forms include Kruno and, by analogy with -slav names, Slavko; the feminine counterpart is Krunoslava. Related surnames and toponyms built on kruna/kruno also occur in the region, reinforcing the regal imagery embedded in the name.
