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.”

Malgorzata

“Małgorzata is one of the most common Polish feminine names, the Polish form of Margaret, derived through Latin Margarita from ancient Greek margarites meaning "pearl." It has been used in Poland since the medieval period and is closely associated with Saint Margaret of Antioch. Its diminutive forms — Małgosia, Gosia, Gośka — are among the most recognizable in the Polish naming tradition.”
