Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4501]

Thank you Polonius :)

USA, Canada / Can you BE Polish without SPEAKING Polish in the US? [256]

Well I've always considered myself Canadian first. But I do acknowledge that I have Kashubian-polish descent, along with my Finnish descent so im a half breed. : /

I grew up with Beet Root Borshct, Cabbage Rolls, and of course Perogies. My families history has been passed down to me which is uniquely Polish in origin and I've been told by all Slavic people that I look 100% Slavic as opposed to looking Nordic.

I have roots going back to Kashubia Ontario and of course Poland and when I spent 2 months in Poland, everyone treated me like a Polish Person even if I didn't speak the language. I also had a Polish descendant from my Polish sidefight for Canada in WW2 as a member of the Devils Brigade who killed many German Nazis.

Can I say im Polish? Of course not I don't live there I live in Canada so im Canadian but I definitely have a Polish heritage.

Is there any meaning to the last name "Dobrucki"?

All i can find is that its the last name of a Polish racer and the name of a pub in Brazil : /

Thanks
