More Polish names
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.”
Borys
“Borys is the Polish and Ukrainian form of Boris, a name of disputed etymology — likely from Old Turkic bogoris or bulgar meaning "short" or "wolf," or alternatively a Slavic adaptation meaning "battle glory" from elements bor (fight) and slav (glory). It entered Slavic culture through the Bulgarian ruler Knyaz Boris I, who Christianized Bulgaria in 864 AD and became the first Bulgarian saint.”
Kamila
“Kamila is a feminine given name with Slavic and Latin roots. In Slavic languages it derives from the Latin Camilla — the name of the legendary Volscian warrior maiden in Virgil's Aeneid who was so swift she could run across a field of grain without bending a single stalk. In Arabic-influenced Muslim Slavic communities it may also connect to kamil meaning "perfect." The name is common in Poland, Czech Republic, and Slovakia.”
Jan
“Jan is the Polish, Czech, Slovak, Dutch, and Scandinavian form of John, derived from the Hebrew Yohanan meaning "God is gracious." It is one of the most common masculine names across all Slavic languages and has been borne by Polish kings, Czech reformers — most famously Jan Hus, the martyred religious reformer — and countless literary and historical figures.”
Franciszek
“Franciszek is the Polish form of Francis, derived from the Late Latin Franciscus meaning "Frenchman" or "free man." The name was popularized throughout Europe by Saint Francis of Assisi (1181–1226), founder of the Franciscan Order, and became one of the most important Catholic names in Polish culture. It carries strong associations with humility, simplicity, and compassion.”
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.”
