FYI, there exists a related wąpierz in Polish. Zezen (talk) 11:13, 7 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I can see somebody has updated it since with:
... Mel’nyčuk further proposes that the forms with initial vam- were derived by way of Old Church Slavonic *вѫпиръ (*vǫpirŭ) with prothetic *в-, borrowed into Byzantine Greek as βαμπύρος (bampúros) and then borrowed back into the South Slavic languages.
Thanks!
