Genealogy / Polish looks? [1410]

This is a fun thread...
I am 5th generation (1/2 pole tho). 1st immigrant is from Russia when migrated to USA. Dad's side is 100% polish, mom's side is German. I do have my dad's features - nose & rounder face like his mother (she passed before I was born). His aunt (still kicking at 96 yrs!) says my character is the same as hers too, kind & soft spoken. Happy to have her name too! My height (5'5") is from my grandpa though my legs are shorter yet not quite 'petite' (I'm the tallest in my family!). We've all had dark blonde to dark brown hair and hazel to brown eyes (I had really light blonde hair till age 12). Cousins are dark blonde. I tan well like my dad, really dark. A stranger at a gas station asked if I was polish. Weird... I asked what made him ask that... my nose, he said. There you go.

The downside... my dad's generation (siblings & cousins) never learned the language therefore it was never passed down. It didn't bother me when I was younger, but it certainly does now. The language being spoken stopped at our grandparents.

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4500]

Hi -
I'm looking for the meaning of my maiden name: Strzycki and my grandmother's maiden name: Pucilowski (my father's mother).

I do have a copy of a certificate of US naturalization for John Pucilowski in 1913. Also states he was a subject of Russia prior to US naturalization. Family residing in North Chicago, IL: Stefanea (wife), Stella, Mary & Edela (children) at this time.

There may be someone out there related.

Also, I know there was a Father James Strzycki in early 1900's and a stone mason K. Strzycki (unk dates).

Thanks for anything you can find!
Oh, also don't speak Polish - Grandparents never taught the kids.
