The [[Old Norse]] form ''Valdamarr'' (also ''Valdarr'') occurs in the [[Guðrúnarkviða II]] as the name of a king of the Danes. The Old Norse form is also used in [[Heimskringla]], in the story of [[Harald Hardrada]], as the name of a ruler of [[Holmgard]] (Veliky Novgorod), in this case as a translation of the Slavic name ''Volodimer''.<ref>H.

The German form was introduced to Scandinavia as ''Valdemar'' in the 12th century, with king [[Valdemar I of Denmark]].
