Wladyslaw
“Władysław is a Polish masculine name of purely Slavic origin, composed of "władać" meaning "to rule" or "to govern" and "sława" meaning "glory" — thus "glorious ruler." It is one of the most regal of Polish names, borne by four Kings of Poland including Władysław I Łokietek (Władysław the Elbow-High, 1260–1333), who reunified the fragmented Polish lands. The name has deep associations with Polish kingship and national restoration.”
Wanda
“Wanda is a Polish feminine name of uncertain origin — it may derive from the Germanic "Vandal" (the name of the East Germanic people), from a Slavic root related to "woda" meaning "water," or it may be an entirely independent Polish creation. In Polish legend, Wanda was the daughter of Krak, the mythical founder of Kraków, who threw herself into the Vistula River rather than marry a German prince — a story that made her name a symbol of Polish national pride and female self-determination.”
