Nedre Eiker is a municipality in Buskerud county, Norway. It is part of the traditional region of Eiker. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Mjøndalen. The old municipality of Eiker was divided into Nedre Eiker and Øvre Eiker on 1 July 1885. The Old Norse form of the name was Eikjar. The name is the plural form of eiki which means “oak wood”. The meaning of Nedre Eiker is “(the) lower (part of) Eiker”. (The municipality of Eiker was divided in 1885.)
The coat-of-arms is from modern times. They were granted on 26 June 1970. The arms show three gold-colored oak leaves on a red background. The arms are canting because the meaning of the name (Eik) comes from the word for oak.
