regenerowa

Regenerowa is a term encountered in Polish-language onomastics that can function as a feminine surname form or, less commonly, as a toponym in fictional or historical contexts. In historical records and older writing, Regenerowa identifies a woman whose family name is Regener; the suffix -owa marks the feminine form in traditional Polish naming, indicating association with the male family name.

Etymology and linguistic notes: The surname Regener is of German origin and was incorporated into Polish spelling and usage through long periods of contact between Polish and German-speaking communities. The feminine form Regenerowa follows standard Polish morphology, where many married women's surnames or closely associated toponyms take the -owa suffix to indicate feminine ownership or affiliation. In contemporary practice, gendered forms are sometimes omitted in official contexts, and the base surname Regener may be used for all genders in informal settings.

Geographic and cultural usage: There are no widely recognized places named Regenerowa in current cartography. If employed as a toponym, it would typically be read as a place named after a family surname, roughly meaning “Regener’s place” or “Regener family area.” In literature, archives, and genealogical studies, Regenerowa can serve as an illustration of historical naming conventions or as a fictional placename.
