Mirko (Cyrillic script: Мирко) is a masculine given name of South Slavic origin.
By Slavic etymology, the name is composed of the root mir (meaning peace) and hypocoristic suffix -ko usual in South Slavic languages, which together means "the peaceful one". Mirko is sometimes used as a short, hypocoristic form of Miroslav in some Slavic languages.
