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.”
Iga
“Iga is a Polish feminine diminutive, used as a short form of Jadwiga — the Polish form of Hedwig, derived from the Germanic Hadwig, composed of elements meaning "battle" and "war." Jadwiga was the name of the famous Polish Queen Jadwiga (1374–1399), who was later canonized as a saint, giving the name royal and religious prestige in Poland.”
Matylda
“Matylda is the Polish form of Matilda, a Germanic feminine name composed of maht meaning "might" or "strength" and hild meaning "battle" — thus "mighty in battle." The name was made famous by Empress Matilda (1102–1167), daughter of Henry I of England, who fought for the English crown, and by the fictional Matilda of Roald Dahl.”
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.”
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."”
Romana
“Romana is a feminine given name derived from the Latin Romanus meaning "Roman" or "of Rome." It is used in Polish, Czech, Slovak, Italian, and other European cultures. The name carries the prestige of ancient Rome and the Catholic Church's historical connection to the city, making it both a classical and a devotional name in Slavic countries.”
