| VLADIMIR (Влади́мир). Russian name, meaning "ruling the world."
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. (Yonge)
