Meaning & origin
Stanislawa is a distinctly Polish feminine name that has seen very limited use in the United States. According to the Social Security Administration, the name was first recorded in 1908 and reached its highest usage in 1911, after which its frequency steadily declined. Despite its low rank in recent years, the name holds cultural significance in Polish communities, where it continues to be used as a traditional name honoring the male saint Stanislaus. The name's trajectory shows no signs of revival, remaining a rare but recognized choice for families preserving Eastern European heritage.
Stanislawa is the feminine form of the Polish name Stanislaw, composed of the Slavic elements 'stani' (to become, stand) and 'slava' (glory). The name has been borne by Polish nobility and saints, including the medieval bishop Stanislaus of Szczepanow, and remains a traditional Polish given name. As a feminine derivative, it emerged alongside its male counterpart, with records of use dating back centuries in Poland.
