Višeslav (Serbian: Вишеслав) is a Serbo-Croatian masculine given name, a Slavic dithematic name (of two lexemes), derived from the Slavic words više ("great(er), large(r)") and -slav ("glory, fame"), roughly meaning "greater glory". It is a cognate of Romanized West Slavic Wenceslaus. It may refer to:
