Rostislava is a name of Czech origin, meaning growing glory.
Rostislava is a compound name. Its parts are slava — each an attested element with a recorded meaning of its own.
Rostislava does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.

In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Rostislava reduce to 1, The Leader. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
