Etymology of the name VLADIMIR.
Meaning of the baby name VLADIMIR.

  

VLADIMIR (Влади́мир).  Slavic name meaning "ruling the world," from vlad "to rule, to wield power," and mir "peace" or "world."  It has the feminine Vladimira.  Usage: Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia.

    The Russian Vladimir, being of the race of Rurik, is sometimes seized upon as Waldemar; and, in fact, there is little difference in the sense of the first syllable.  He is a great national saint, since it was his marriage with the Greek Princess Anna that obtained for the Byzantine Church her mighty Muscovite daughter; and in honour of him, Vladimir has been perpetually used in Russia, shortened into Volodia, and expanded into Volodinka by way of endearment. (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
