Historical Usage
According to Czech legend, Jarmila was a princess of Bohemia in the late 13th century who fell in love with a shepherd named Smil. Despite her father's disapproval, they married in secret. When discovered, Jarmila was banished from her homeland. She and Smil wandered throughout Europe, eventually settling in Moravia where they founded the town of Zlin. Jarmila is venerated as the patron saint of Moravia and is often depicted with a shepherd's staff and roses.
Late 13th century
Another legend tells of a Slavic goddess named Jarmila who was the goddess of love, fertility, and the harvest. She was believed to protect the fields and ensure bountiful harvests. Her name is derived from 'Jarovit', an ancient Slavic god of the sun, and 'Mila', meaning 'gentle' or 'loving'. This deity was widely worshipped in Bohemia and Moravia until the arrival of Christianity.
