    .
    Perhaps. Mediveal chronicles nicknamed Czech people as "čeleď sv. Václava", in this context it could be transtated as "community of St. Vaclav".
    Anyway, tommorow is St. Václav day ,again.
    St. Wenceslaus Chorale was used in Middle Ages, as some kind of our National Anthem:

    Wenceslaus is an old Slavic name meaning "much glory", composed of the words "ventie" (more, much) and "slav" (glory). It has a distant semantic connection with the ancient Greek Στέφανος (stephanos) (wreath, crown).
    The name Ventsislav is the Bulgarian reading of the Greek name Stefan, which means crown bearer. It comes from a wreath (Slavic), "to be a wreath of glory".
    For St. Wenceslas (Wenceslas) is sung in the English Christmas song "Good King Wenceslas" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQVUMG6LZGM
    Also appears in Swedish: Wenzel, Dutch: Wenceslaus
    Latinized: Wenzeslaus, Wenceslas.
    ...Even if a man lives well, he dies and another one comes into existence. Let the one who comes later upon seeing this inscription remember the one who had made it. And the name is Omurtag, Kanasubigi.

    Wacek (diminutive form of Wacław) colloquially means a dick.

    My paternal grandfather’s mother’s maiden name was Wetzel. Never confirmed where exactly they lived before immigration, likely modern day Germany somewhere..
