Marózek

Marózek is a Polish surname. Surnames in Poland, including Marózek, often originated from various sources, such as occupations, geographical locations, personal characteristics, or patronymic naming conventions. While the exact etymological origin of "Marózek" might require further genealogical research, it likely derives from a diminutive form of a given name beginning with "Mar-", such as Marcin (Martin), or from a place name containing the element "Mar-". The suffix "-ek" or "-zek" are commonly used in Polish to create diminutives, indicating "little" or "young". Therefore, Marózek could potentially denote "little Marcin" or "son of Marcin," or derive from a smaller locality related to a "Mar-" element. Without access to detailed historical records and genealogical databases, the precise meaning remains speculative. Bearers of the surname Marózek are found predominantly in Poland and possibly in Polish diaspora communities abroad.
