politsiyenskyi

Politsiyenskyi is a Ukrainian surname. It is derived from the Ukrainian word "поліція" (politsiya), which means "police". The suffix "-enskyi" is a common Ukrainian adjectival suffix, often indicating origin or belonging. Therefore, the surname literally translates to something akin to "of the police" or "policeman's".

The surname is found primarily in Ukraine and among the Ukrainian diaspora. Like many surnames, its exact origin may be linked to an ancestor who was a member of the police force, or it could have been adopted for other reasons related to the term. Surnames that denote occupations were common throughout Eastern Europe.

Variations of the surname may exist due to transliteration differences from Cyrillic to the Latin alphabet. For example, it might be spelled Politsiyenskiy, Politsyensky, or other similar forms. The prevalence of the surname is not exceptionally high, suggesting it is not one of the most common Ukrainian surnames but is still recognizable within the Ukrainian context.
