Lord Voldemort was a former student of Hogwarts School. His real name was Tom Marvolo Riddle. He took the name Voldemort because he did not want to carry his father's name, whom he was ashamed of. He was deep into the dark arts and planned on ruling the wizarding community. He believed in a pure-blood race, although he was not a pure-blood himself. He was the true heir of Salizar Slytherin. Voldemort formed the group who later called themselves the Death Eaters. Voldemort killed many people including Harry Potter's parents. When Voldemort tried to kill Harry as an infant, his spell backfired due to a protection Harry's mother placed on him. He was all but destroyed. Due to some very dark magic he had performed previous to his "death", he was able to come back and wreak havoc through Harry's years at Hogwarts. He escalated a reign of terror through the magical community. This came to a climax at a final battle at Hogwarts. Voldemort died during this battle.
It's actually French, according to JK Rowling. There are varied meanings in the internet for vol de mort, but basically it means: 'flight from death', 'theft of death' or 'flight of death'.
Lord Voldemort was actually Tom Marvolo Riddle. After the death of his mother, he was sent to live in an orphanage. He did not know who his father was until later in life. While in the orphanage, he discovered he had unexplained abilities. He used his abilities to bully and torment the other children. Dumbledore came to invite him to attend Hogwarts. It was revealed he was a thief. Dumbledore did not trust him for this and other reasons. He left the orphanage to attend Hogwarts as a Slytherin. While there he opened the Chamber of Secrets, learned about horcruxes, and founded what was to be the predecessors of the Death Eaters. After reaching adulthood he tried to take over the wizarding world. He terrorized and killed many people, including Harry Potter's parents. By killing Harry's mother, he unwittingly allowed her to evoke a powerful magic over Harry. This later helped lead to his downfall.
