More Polish names
Kacper
“Kacper is the Polish form of Caspar (or Jasper), derived from the Persian Gathaspar or Gaspar, meaning "treasurer" or "master of the treasure." By Christian tradition, Caspar was the name given to one of the Three Wise Men (Magi) who brought gifts to the infant Jesus, and the name spread throughout Catholic Europe — particularly Poland, where Kacper is the common variant.”
Kornelia
“Kornelia is the Polish and Central European form of Cornelia, derived from the Roman family name Cornelius, of uncertain Etruscan or Latin origin — possibly related to the Latin cornu meaning "horn." Cornelia was one of the most celebrated names in Roman history through Cornelia Africana (190–100 BC), mother of the Gracchi brothers, who was regarded as a model of Roman womanhood.”
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.”
Tadeusz
“Tadeusz is the Polish form of Thaddeus, derived from the Aramaic name Taddai, meaning "heart" or "courageous heart." It entered Polish culture through the biblical apostle Thaddeus and became deeply embedded in national identity, most famously through Adam Mickiewicz's 1834 epic poem Pan Tadeusz, considered the national epic of Poland.”
Wojciech
“Wojciech is a Polish masculine name of purely Slavic origin, composed of "woj" from "wojsko" meaning "army" or "warrior" and "ciech" from "ciecha" meaning "joy" or "consolation" — thus "joyful warrior" or "warrior's consolation." Saint Wojciech (Adalbert of Prague, c. 956–997), the Bishop of Prague who was martyred while evangelizing the Prussians, is the patron saint of Poland, Bohemia, and Hungary.”
Kamil
“Kamil is a masculine name with dual origins. As a Slavic name used in Poland and Czech Republic, it derives from the Latin Camillus, a Roman cognomen possibly meaning "young ceremonial attendant" or "free-born." In Arabic-speaking countries and Muslim Slavic communities, Kamil derives from the Arabic kāmil meaning "perfect" or "complete."”
