[Opinions] Polish Names
Hi !!!
I was looking for Polish names...
...and I found WACŁAW, GRZEGORZ, SZCZEPAN and ŚWIĘTOMIERZ that I don't know how pronounce them.
Is there any Polish user who can help me?
Can you suggest me some Polish names that are modern (for children born in XXI century)?
Byeeeeee

I was about to help you out with these, under the assumption that you asked because BtN doesn't list the pronunciations, but it does. Click on the names and you'll find them.
Check here for modern, i.e. popular, names used in Poland.

Hi !!!
You were not so kind...
I know that there is a pronounce but I asked for it to users because I don't know their polularity and also because we are from different countries so I'm glad to search different opinions...
Byeeeee

Explain to me how I was unkind. I was going to list the pronunciations for you but the site already does that much better than I can.
I meant to include this link for popular names: http://www.behindthename.com/top/lists/poland/2014

Hi !!!
I'm so sorry...
I'm the real unkind not you...
When I wrote the message I was annoyed for other reason not for Behind the Name...
Thank you for links XD

It's really not. Check the link: Wacław
I don't speak Polish, but I think I know pretty well how to pronounce these names:
Waclaw sounds like WAT-suahv (I can't write the L with the line on, but it sounds a bit like the English W).
Grzegorz - GSHEH-gawrsh
Szczepan - SHCHEH-pahn (first sh as in shine, then ch as in chin)
Swietomierz - I think it's something like SCH-wyahn-toh-myerts (the first E is nasal, a bit like "un" in French).
To all Polish-speakers out there, sorry if this is totally wrong! But I did my best!

Not bad! I would also note is that the letter 'w' in Polish sounds more like the hard English 'v'. The first two names are fairly common, but Szczepan and Swietomierz are less so.
