Ziółkowska Surname Meaning & Coat of Arms

Ziółkowska is best understood together with Ziółkowski: both are Polish spellings of a single family name. Taken at its root, Ziółkowska points to “herbs”. Ziółkowska is the feminine form of Ziółkowski; Polish surnames ending in -ski or -cki traditionally take -ska or -cka for women. Regional accents shaped spellings long before dictionaries fixed them.

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Ziółkowska, so the heraldry linked to Ziółkowski is a starting point, not an automatic right. For the full story, order the Ziółkowska surname pack.
