Jaroslaw is the Polish form of the Slavic Yaroslav. This masculine name combines two elements, jarŭ, meaning “furious,” and sláva, meaning “glory,” so the name is said to represent “one who is famous and renowned for his fury.” Jaroslaw has had significance throughout history, from being the proto-slavic deity of the sun, spring, and fertility to gaining the meaning “fervent worship of God” as countries adopted Christianity. With such a broad spectrum of connotations, your little one can choose their own purpose as life unfolds.
