Meaning and origin of the Sendek last name
Meaning of the Sendek last name: a shortened old personal name involving judgment. Sendek is a Polish form related to Sędek, a familiar version of old compound personal names such as Sędzimir and Sędziwoj. Their first element concerns judging. A Slovak explanation may differ. The surname preserves an old naming element, but does not establish that every ancestor held a judicial office.
