Jeronim

Jeronim is the Croatian form of the Late Latin name Hieronymus, which derives from the Greek Hieronymos, composed of the elements hieros, meaning holy or sacred, and onyma, meaning name. The name is most closely associated with Saint Jerome, the fourth-century scholar who produced the Latin Vulgate translation of the Bible, making it widely venerated across Christian Europe. Related forms in other languages include Jerome in English and French, Hieronymus in German and Dutch, Jerónimo in Spanish and Portuguese, and Gerolamo in Italian.
