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.”

Fryderyk
“Fryderyk is the Polish form of Frederick, derived from the Germanic Friedrich, composed of frid meaning "peace" and ric meaning "ruler" or "power" — thus "peaceful ruler." The name was borne by Holy Roman Emperors and Prussian kings, and in Poland it is inseparably associated with Frédéric Chopin (1810–1849), the great Polish Romantic composer who is the supreme expression of the Polish national spirit in music.”
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.”
Witold
“Witold is a Polish masculine name derived from the Lithuanian Vytautas, which is composed of vyti meaning "to chase" or "to pursue" and tauta meaning "people" or "nation." Alternatively, it may have Germanic origins meaning "ruling the forest." It was the name of the great Lithuanian ruler Vytautas (1350–1430), who led the Grand Duchy of Lithuania to its greatest territorial extent.”
Cezary
“Cezary is the Polish form of Caesar, derived from the Roman cognomen Caesar, of uncertain etymology — possibly from the Latin caesus meaning "cut" (possibly referring to a caesarean birth), or from caesaries meaning "head of hair." The name Julius Caesar made it the most famous of all Roman cognomina, and through the imperial tradition it passed into Polish usage as Cezary.”
Paulina
“Paulina is the feminine form of Paulinus, a derivative of Paulus (Paul), from the Latin paulus meaning "small" or "humble." It is used as a feminine given name in Polish, Czech, Spanish, Portuguese, and other European languages. In Poland Paulina has been a popular name since the medieval period, carried by saints and noble women alike.”
Anastazja
“Anastazja is the Polish form of Anastasia, derived from the Greek anastasis meaning "resurrection" — from ana (up, again) and histanai (to stand). The name has deep religious resonance in both Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic traditions, associated with Saint Anastasia, a fourth-century martyr. In Russian imperial history, Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanova made the name famous worldwide.”
