Konstanty
Konstanty Origin and Meaning
Konstanty is a name with Polish and Eastern European roots, traditionally used as a masculine name though listed here as feminine. It is the Polish variant of Constantine, derived from the Latin 'constantia' meaning 'constancy' or 'steadfastness.' Historically significant, it recalls Emperor Constantine the Great who legalized Christianity in the Roman Empire. In Poland, Konstanty has been used by nobility and commoners alike, though it's more classic than currently fashionable. The feminine usage represents a modern gender-crossover trend, though traditionally it would be Konstantyna or Konstancja for females. The name carries connotations of reliability, persistence, and unwavering principles. With its strong consonants and distinctive ending, Konstanty projects strength and historical depth regardless of gender assignment.
