Rhymes: -ɔt͡swaf Etymology: From Wrocisław, Wrócisław, or Warcisław, an Old Polish given name, cognate with the Czech Vratislav. The name is derived from wrócić (“to return; archaically: to give back, to defeat a foe, to force to flee”) + -sław (“name, respect, glory, reputation”). Traditionally considered to be named after Vratislaus I, Duke of Bohemia, the legendary founder of the city. However, this hypothesis is problematic, since the first records of the city's existence are several decades later than the death of Vratislaus I.
