Casimira is a name of Slavic and Germanic roots that, curiously, means "the one who destroys or reveals peace." Although it sounds like the name of a respectable grandmother, it has a much spicier and more adventurous history than it seems.

She is loyal to the bone, but if you cross her, you better run because there is no possible forgiveness.
