Ziębów

Ziębów is a Polish surname. It is derived from a personal name, likely from a diminutive form of a name beginning with the letter "Z" or "Ź". The "-ów" suffix indicates a possessive form, signifying "of Zięba's family" or "belonging to the family of Zięba". "Zięba" itself translates to "finch" in Polish, so the surname may have originated as a descriptive name or nickname referring to someone with characteristics associated with the finch, such as a cheerful disposition or a small stature. Surnames ending in "-ów" are common in Poland and often denote family lineage or place of origin.
