What is the meaning of the name Miran ?

The baby name Miran is a boy name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced MEE-rahn.

Miran is Slavic in Origin.

Miran is chiefly a South Slavic masculine name built on Proto-Slavic *mirъ, earlier reconstructed as *mirŭ in older notation, a noun with the paired senses peace and world, order, community. The ending -an is a common adjectival and name-forming suffix in Slovene and neighboring Slavic languages, so Miran is literally the peaceful one or one belonging to peace.

The name is most closely associated with Slovenia and Croatia, with smaller use in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia; Slovene records place it among familiar mid twentieth-century male names, and Miran Jarc gives it a literary association. Related Slavic forms include Mirko and the feminine Mira and Mirna. Separate, unrelated uses occur in Persian, Kurdish, and Turkish contexts from mir, a title for a prince or leader, while Korean Mi-ran and Japanese feminine uses have different etymologies.
