Subject: Regarding Polish Surname
Author: Mark   (guest, 205.188.117.10)

It so happens that my last name is Andrzejczak, a Polish surname which I believe has its origins in what is now western Poland/eastern Germany. I was wondering if anyone here could possibly help me dig up the etymology of this name. Being as "Andrzej" is the Polish form of the name "Andrew", I was thinking that it was probably similar in meaning to the English cognate "Anderson", but I want confirmation.
