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.”

The name is associated with Livia Drusilla (58 BC–29 AD), wife of Emperor Augustus and one of the most powerful women in Roman history.”
Klaudia
“Klaudia is the Polish and Slovak feminine form of Claudia, derived from the Roman family name Claudius, whose origins are uncertain — possibly from the Latin claudus meaning "lame." The Claudii were one of the great patrician families of ancient Rome. The name entered Slavic cultures through Catholic tradition and has been used in Poland for centuries.”
Filip
“Filip is the Slavic form of Philip, derived from the Greek Philippos meaning "lover of horses," from philein (to love) and hippos (horse). It is used as a masculine given name in Polish, Czech, Slovak, Serbian, Croatian, Bulgarian, and other Slavic languages. In the New Testament, Philip was one of the twelve apostles, giving the name strong Catholic resonance in Slavic cultures.”
Wiktor
“Wiktor is the Polish form of Victor, from the Latin victor meaning "conqueror" or "winner." In Poland the name has strong Catholic associations through Saint Victor, and it appears throughout Polish history borne by writers, painters, and public figures. The Polish spelling distinguishes it clearly from the Russian/Czech Viktor.”
Cyprian
“Cyprian is a masculine name derived from the Latin Cyprianus, meaning "man of Cyprus" — someone from the island of Cyprus, which was famous in antiquity for its copper (cuprum) and its association with Aphrodite/Venus. Saint Cyprian of Carthage (c. 200–258) was an early Church Father and bishop martyr whose writings shaped Catholic ecclesiology.”
Maja
“Maja is a widespread Slavic feminine name with two distinct origins: it functions as both a short form of Marija (the Slavic form of Mary, from Hebrew Miriam meaning "beloved" or "wished-for child") and as an independent name connected to the Roman goddess Maia, deity of spring and growth. In Polish, Czech, Slovak, and South Slavic cultures it is a popular springtime name associated with warmth, nature, and new beginnings.”
