Vsevolod or Wsewolod (russian: Все́волод ; uk, Все́волод ) is a Slavic male first name. Its etymology is from Slavic roots 'vse' (all) and 'volodeti' (to rule) and means 'lord-of-everything/everybody', (similar to another princely name, " Vladimir" or " Volodymyr"). It is equivalent to the Belarusian ''Usievalad'', Polish ''Wszewład'', Lithuanian ''Visvaldas'', Latvian ''Visvaldis'' and German ''Wissewald''. The corresponding Russian patronymic is Vsevolodovich.
