More Polish names
Marianna
“Marianna is a feminine compound name combining Maria and Anna — both ultimately Hebrew in origin, with Maria deriving from Miriam (possibly meaning "wished-for child" or "beloved") and Anna from Hannah (meaning "grace" or "favour"). The combination creates a name of doubled religious resonance, honoring both the Virgin Mary and Saint Anne. It is used in Polish, Czech, Italian, and other European cultures.”
Edyta
“Edyta is the Polish form of Edith, derived from the Old English name Eadgyth, composed of "ead" meaning "wealth," "fortune," or "prosperity" and "gyth" meaning "war" or "strife" — thus "prosperous in war." The name came into Polish use via its Latin and French forms and has been firmly established in Poland since the 19th century. The Polish singer Edyta Górniak, who represented Poland at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1994, gave the name a modern cultural profile.”
Wanda
“Wanda is a Polish feminine name of uncertain origin — it may derive from the Germanic "Vandal" (the name of the East Germanic people), from a Slavic root related to "woda" meaning "water," or it may be an entirely independent Polish creation. In Polish legend, Wanda was the daughter of Krak, the mythical founder of Kraków, who threw herself into the Vistula River rather than marry a German prince — a story that made her name a symbol of Polish national pride and female self-determination.”
Krystyna
“Krystyna is the Polish form of Christina, derived from the Latin Christianus meaning "a follower of Christ" or "belonging to Christ." The name has been popular in Poland for centuries, carrying strong associations with Catholic tradition and female resilience.”
Borys
“Borys is the Polish and Ukrainian form of Boris, a name of disputed etymology — likely from Old Turkic bogoris or bulgar meaning "short" or "wolf," or alternatively a Slavic adaptation meaning "battle glory" from elements bor (fight) and slav (glory). It entered Slavic culture through the Bulgarian ruler Knyaz Boris I, who Christianized Bulgaria in 864 AD and became the first Bulgarian saint.”
Patrycja
“Patrycja is the Polish feminine form of Patricius (Patrick), derived from the Latin patricius meaning "nobleman" or "of noble birth," referring to the patrician class of ancient Rome. The name came to Poland through the Catholic tradition of Saint Patrick, and it carries strong associations with nobility, dignity, and high social standing.”
