The name also belongs to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Russia's greatest composer.”
Vladimir
“Vladimir is a Slavic masculine name composed of "vladeti" meaning "to rule" or "to have power" and "mir" meaning "peace," "world," or "people" — thus "ruler of the world" or "peaceful ruler." It was made famous by Vladimir the Great (c. 958–1015), the Grand Prince of Kiev who converted Kievan Rus to Orthodox Christianity in 988, one of the most consequential acts in the history of Eastern Europe. The name is also internationally associated with Vladimir Lenin and Vladimir Nabokov.”
Viktor
“Viktor is the Slavic form of Victor, derived from the Latin victor meaning "conqueror" or "winner," from vincere (to conquer). The name was popular among early Christians as a celebration of Christ's victory over death, and it became widespread across all Slavic languages — Russian, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Bulgarian, Serbian, and Croatian.”
Olga
“Olga is the Russian and Slavic form of the Old Norse name Helga, derived from "heilagr" meaning "holy" or "blessed." The name was brought to Kievan Rus by Varangian settlers and became famous through Saint Olga of Kiev (c. 890–969), the first Rus ruler to convert to Christianity and the grandmother of Vladimir the Great. She is venerated as a saint in the Eastern Orthodox Church.”
Aleksei
“Aleksei is the Russian form of Alexis, derived from the ancient Greek "Alexios" from "alexein" meaning "to defend" or "to help." It was a popular name among Byzantine emperors and Russian tsars, borne most notably by Tsar Aleksei Mikhailovich (1629–1676), the father of Peter the Great. In literature it appears as Aleksei Karenin, Anna's cold husband in Tolstoy's novel, and as the luminous Alyosha Karamazov in Dostoevsky.”
Mikhail
“Mikhail is the Russian form of Michael, derived from the Hebrew "Mikha'el" meaning "Who is like God?" — a rhetorical question implying that no one compares to the divine. The Archangel Michael, commander of the heavenly armies, has made this one of the most venerated names in the Eastern Orthodox tradition. It has been borne by Russian tsars, great writers, and celebrated composers including Glinka and Glière.”
