At some time the diocese was recorded as Vladislaviensis et Pomeraniae.
The name Vladislaviensis and the timeframe point to Wladislaw II the Exile[?] or his grandfather Wladislaw I Herman as well as Vladislav I[?], King of Bohemia as possible namegivers.
Various unsubstantiated claims as to various different years of establishment have been made by several Polish writers, starting in the 16th century.
