of Slavic origin. Variations include ''Volodislav'', ''Vlastislav'' and ''Vlaslav''. In the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Croatia, the common variation is Ladislav.

The Portuguese and Romanian forms are ''Ladislau''. The Hungarian form is László. In Russian-speaking countries, it is usually colloquially shortened to either ''Vlad'' (Влад) or ''Vladik'' (Владик). The feminine form of the name Vladislav is Vladislava or, in Polish spelling, ''Władysława''.


Origin

The name Vladislav literally means 'one who owns a glory', or simply 'famous'. It is a composite name derived from two Slavic roots: ''Vlad-'', meaning either 'to own' (Ukrainian ''volodity'' [] means 'to own', Polish ['to possess'], Russian [ 'to own']), or 'to rule' (another meaning of Polish ''władać'' is 'to rule'. Ukrainian ''vlada'' [влада] means 'power', 'the government'; in Slovak and Czech, ''vláda'' means ruling body, government in modern form, ''vládnuť (vládnout)'' means 'to rule', ''vládca ládce' is 'ruler'), and ''slav-'', meaning 'fame'/'glory'. It has also extended into Romania and Moldova, which are non-Slavic countries.
