also spelled Chlodomer
Merovingian king of Orléans from 511.
The eldest son of Clovis I by Clotilda, Clodomir shared in the fourfold partition of his father's kingdom in 511, receiving lands in western and central France; his was the only one of the four kingdoms to form a single geographical unit on both sides of the Loire River. In 523, with his two full brothers, Chlotar I and Childebert I, as allies, he attacked his eastern neighbours, the Burgundians; their king, Sigismund, was captured and put to death together with his family. In the following year, Clodomir resumed the attack, this time with his half-brother, Theodoric I, but was killed at the battle of Vézeronce, where king Godomer, Sigismund's brother, was his opponent. Two of Clodomir's young sons were then murdered by Chlotar and Childebert, who shared his lands with Theodoric. A third son, Chlodovald, escaped, to enter the religious life and found the monastery at Paris which bears his name (Saint-Cloud).
