Male Ukrainian name (Владислав)
Vladyslav (Ukrainian: Владислав) is a male name of Slavic origin meaning «glorious in rule», «one whose rule is glorious», «ruler crowned with glory».
The name is formed from two Proto-Slavic roots: *voldě- («to rule, govern») and *slava («glory, honour») — the same roots that underlie Volodymyr and Svyatoslav. In medieval Central-Eastern Europe the name was borne by numerous rulers — from Hungarian-Polish kings (Vladislav I Lokietek, Vladislav II Jagiello) to Czech and Serbian monarchs. It came to the Slavic onomasticon through Church Slavonic literature. The Ukrainian form Vladyslav is close to other Slavic versions; it became significantly more widespread in 20th-century Ukrainian usage.
Proto-Slavic roots: volděti («to rule, govern») + slava («glory»); composite sense «one whose rule is glorious».
