Lewandowski Family History
Lewandowski Name Meaning
Polish: possibly a derivative of the word lewanda lawenda ‘lavender’ or geographical name Levant (compare personal name Levant ). It is unlikely that it originated from the placename Lewandów now part of Warsaw since it was established only in the 19th century while the surname was recorded for the first time in the 17th century. This surname is also established in Germany. Compare Levandowski Levandoski Levendusky and Lewandoski .
