Valdemar
Waldemar, Valdemar, Valdimar, or Woldemar is an Old High German given name. It consists of the elements wald- "power", "brightness" and -mar "fame".
The name is considered the equivalent of the Latvian name Valdemārs, the Estonian name Voldemar, and the Slavic names Vladimir, Volodymyr, Uladzimir or Włodzimierz.
The Old Norse form Valdamarr (also Valdarr) occurs in the Guðrúnarkviða II as the name of a king of the Danes. The Old Norse form is also used in Heimskringla, in the story of Harald Hardrada, as the name of a ruler of Holmgard (Veliky Novgorod). The Fagrskinna kings' sagas also have Valdamarr, in reference to both Vladimir the Great and Vladimir Yaroslavovich.
