Yes, I remember I made a post on Polish names when I came back from my trip to Poland in 2008 and thinking they don't get discussed here so often. I find Lech (shame it sounds bad in English) and Stanislaw rather handsome. I remember coming across Marek as well quite often . For girls, I like Elzbieta and Malgorzata .
