Related names
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.”
Beata
Polish · “Beata is a Latin-derived feminine name used in Polish, Czech, Slovak, and other Slavic cultures, from the Latin "beatus" meaning "blessed," "happy," or "fortunate." It is the feminine form of the Beatitudes — "Beati" — the blessings proclaimed by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. The name carries strong Catholic resonance and was particularly popular in Poland during the 17th and 18th centuries and again in the late 20th century.”

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.”
Renata
“Renata is derived from the Latin renatus meaning "born again" or "reborn," from the verb renasci. It entered European usage through early Christian baptismal theology, representing spiritual renewal. The name is common across Polish, Czech, Italian, and other European cultures.”
Natasza
“Natasza is the Polish form of Natasha, a diminutive of Natalya derived from the Latin "natale domini" meaning "birth of the Lord." As a given name in its own right in Polish culture, it carries the warmth of the Russian diminutive while establishing a distinctly Polish orthographic identity. The name connects Polish culture to the great tradition of Russian literature — most powerfully to Natasha Rostova in Tolstoy's War and Peace.”
Marta
“Marta is a Polish, Czech, Slovak, and broader Slavic feminine name, the Slavic form of Martha, derived from the Aramaic "marta" meaning "lady" or "mistress of the house." In the New Testament, Martha of Bethany is the practical, hardworking sister of Mary and Lazarus who busies herself with household duties while Mary sits at Jesus's feet — making the name a byword for capable domestic virtue. It has been used in Poland, Czech Republic, and other Slavic countries since the medieval period.”
Marcelina
“Marcelina is a feminine given name, a Latinate diminutive form of Marcellus, itself derived from the Roman praenomen Marcus and ultimately linked to Mars, the Roman god of war. The name has been used in Poland and other Slavic countries since the medieval period, carried by Saint Marcelina, the sister of Saint Ambrose of Milan.”
Jeremi
“Jeremi is a Polish masculine name, a form of Jeremy/Jeremiah, derived from the Hebrew Yirmeyahu meaning "God will exalt" or "appointed by God." The prophet Jeremiah, one of the major prophets of the Hebrew Bible, gives the name its primary resonance — the "weeping prophet" whose lamentations over Jerusalem's destruction became a model of prophetic sorrow.”
