Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Slovanské dvojčlenné meno pochádzajúce z praslovanskej podoby *Voldiměrъ. Prvý člen súvisí so slovesom *volděti vo význame „vládnuť, mať moc“, druhý sa najčastejšie spája s germánskym prvkom *mērs „veľký, slávny“. Neskôr bol druhý člen ľudovou etymológiou priklonený k slovanskému *mirъ „mier, svet“. Pôvodný význam mena sa preto vykladá ako „veľký či slávny vládca“, druhotne aj ako „vládca sveta“ alebo „ten, kto vládne v mieri“.
