I came across a Slavic name Miron… which I like for its short form. But I know that it might sound strange for someone not of that origin… is that really so?

Sorry its St. Mirin who was the original person, St Mirren is a football team! 🙈

Male or female? There's a St. Mirren who was male, but I know a female Mirren.

I knew a Myron at uni in the 1990s. He was Sri Lankan.

I don't think it's ever been popular in English speaking countries, but the Myron spelling is known. I'm not keen, but there are worse.

It was popular in the 50s I think, sounds quite old fashioned to me like Eugene or Diane.
