Meaning & History

Derived from the initials of the Russian politician and communist revolutionary Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870-1924), who founded the former Soviet state. This name was created by Communist parents who were eager to reject traditional names.

Known bearers of this name include the Russian journalist Vil Lipatov (1927-1979) and Vil Mirzayanov (b. 1935), a Russian chemist of ethnic Tatar origin.
