Maryanskyj

Maryanskyj is a surname of Ukrainian origin. It is derived from the given name Mar'yan, a Ukrainian form of Marian, which itself is related to the Roman family name Marius. The suffix "-skyj" is a common Ukrainian patronymic suffix, indicating "son of" or "belonging to." Therefore, Maryanskyj essentially means "son of Mar'yan" or "descendant of Mar'yan."

The surname is found among people of Ukrainian descent, and its distribution is most concentrated in Ukraine and in countries with significant Ukrainian diaspora populations, such as Canada, the United States, and Russia. Like many surnames, its exact origin can vary from family to family, but the general etymological root remains consistent. Variations in spelling may exist due to transliteration from Cyrillic script into the Latin alphabet. For example, variations like Mariansky, Maryanski, or Marianski are possible. The surname does not inherently carry any specific social or historical connotations beyond its linguistic origin.
