[2] It is named after the settlement of Gruemirë which in turn takes its name from the legend of "Good women" which traditionally is translated good-mirë: women-grua (grue from dialect) and had its home territory in Gruemira.
Traditionally, in Albanological research it has been seen as compound of grua (woman) and mirë (good).
[3] Another theory based in the rendering of the toponym in the defter of Scutari in 1485 as Kuruemira proposes an etymology as a compound of krua (well) + mirë (good).
Near her house a passing man (Trim-brave) was thirsty and asked the women for water.
From that time the settlement is called "The Good Women- Gruemirë", referring to all women from that cottage.
