All the names and what they mean, collected from a collection of sites:
a. Vlad. First name. See members.aol.com/johnfranc/drac05.
b. III. His father was Vlad Dracul, or Vlad II, I understand, so this Vlad is Vlad III.
c. Tepes. Impaler. See www.royalty.nu/Europe/Balkan/Dracula.
d. Dracula. Dragon, as in Order of the Dragon, to which Vlad's father first belonged, then Vlad. See www.rodoslovlje.com/medieval_serbia/eng/history-dragon.
See www.donlinke.com/drakula/vlad. This is a good site for the historical Dracula.
