Dbrowski

Dbrowski is a surname of Polish origin. It is a non-diacritic variant of the more common Dąbrowski, which reflects the transition from Polish orthography to environments where diacritics are omitted.

Etymology: The name derives from Dąbrowa, a topographic place-name rooted in dąb "oak" with the suffix -rowa, and the adjectival suffix -ski indicates origin or association. The standard spelling Dąbrowski retains the diacritic in Polish.

Distribution: In contemporary records, Dbrowski appears mainly among Polish communities both in Poland and abroad. Variants such as Dabrowski are common where diacritics are not used. The surname is found in North America, Western Europe, and parts of the Commonwealth due to migration.

Notable use: As with many surnames, individuals bearing the spelling Dbrowski have contributed in various fields, but there is no single widely recognized figure tied to the name. The more common form Dąbrowski has a longer documented history in Polish-language sources.
