Detailed Slovak etymology analysis
Vlaho je chorvátska, osobitne dubrovnícka podoba gréckeho mena Blasios (Βλάσιος), ktoré sa do kresťanskej tradície dostalo aj v latinskej forme Blasius. Z rovnakého mena pochádza slovenský Blažej. Podoba Vlaho vznikla hláskovým prispôsobením gréckeho mena v dubrovníckom prostredí a etymologicky nesúvisí s etnonymom Vlach.
