Wielka

Wielka is a Polish toponym and the feminine form of the adjective wielki, meaning "great" or "grand." As a place name, it is used for several settlements within Poland.

In everyday administrative terms, places named Wielka are typically small rural localities. They are usually villages that are part of a gmina (municipality) within a county (powiat) and voivodeship (województwo). Because Wielka is a common toponym element, there are multiple distinct locales with this name across different regions, each identified by its respective administrative district.

The name Wielka may reflect historical or geographical attributes associated with a given place, such as a notable landscape feature or an estate. As with many Polish village names, the precise origin can vary from one location to another, and the same name does not imply any current administrative status beyond being a recognized locality within its district. Outside of as a proper noun, Wielka also appears as a grammatical form in Polish, describing something feminine and singular as "great" or "large" in ordinary language.
