Joanna
Polish · “Joanna is the Latinate feminine form of John, derived from the Hebrew "Yochanan" meaning "God is gracious." In the New Testament, Joanna appears as one of the women who followed Jesus and who witnessed the empty tomb — an early and significant figure in the Christian story. The name has been used in Poland since medieval times and is one of the most stable and enduring of Polish feminine names.”
Agnieszka
Polish · “Agnieszka is the Polish form of Agnes, derived from the ancient Greek "hagnos" meaning "pure," "chaste," or "holy." Saint Agnes of Rome, a fourth-century virgin martyr of extraordinary courage, made this name revered across the Catholic world. In Poland, Agnieszka has been one of the most consistently popular feminine names for centuries. The name is internationally known through filmmaker Agnieszka Holland, whose films explore Polish and European history with unsparing clarity.”
Monika
Polish · “Monika is the Slavic form of Monica, a name of uncertain origin — possibly Berber or Phoenician (associated with North Africa where Saint Monica lived), possibly from the Latin "monere" meaning "to advise" or "to warn." Saint Monica (331–387), the deeply devout mother of Saint Augustine of Hippo, whose decades of prayer finally converted her brilliant but wayward son, gave this name an enduring spiritual significance across Catholic Europe.”
Edyta
Polish · “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.”

Saint Jadwiga of Poland (1373–1399) — the young queen who brought the Grand Duchy of Lithuania into the Catholic Christian fold and founded Jagiellonian University — is one of the most honored figures in Polish history. She was canonized in 1997 by Pope John Paul II.”
