Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Vratko je osamostatnená domácka podoba slovanského zloženého mena Vratislav. Jeho prvá zložka súvisí so slovanským slovesným základom vrat- vo význame „vrátiť, obracať“ a druhá zložka -slav so slovom „sláva“. Meno Vratislav sa preto tradične vykladá ako „ten, kto vracia slávu“ alebo „navrátená sláva“.
