The origin of the old name of Miromir is quite curious, at the time when it was just a village located south of the remains of Diocletianopol.

There is a theory according to which the name Davadzhovo is explained by the constant quarrels (from Turkish word "davii") of the inhabitants of the settlement with the neighboring settlements in the period after its founding, which took place around 1608.
