Matuszek

Matuszek is a surname of Polish origin, most commonly found in areas such as Poland as a result of migration. However, it is worth noting that, despite its Polish roots, the surname Matuszek has also been adopted by families in the United Kingdom.

The name Matuszek is derived from the Polish personal name "Mateusz," which itself is equivalent to the English name "Matthew." The addition of the suffix "-ek" in Polish surnames signifies a diminutive form, implying that "Matuszek" translates to "little Matthew" or "son of Matthew."

The Matuszek surname is relatively rare in the United Kingdom, with small pockets of families scattered across the country. As with many surnames, variations in spelling and pronunciation can be found, such as "Matuszak" or "Matusek."

In summary, while the Matuszek surname is more prevalent in regions with strong Polish heritage, individuals bearing this surname can also be found in the United Kingdom due to historical population movements and migration.

There are approximately 45 people named Matuszek in the UK. That makes it one of Britain's least common surnames. Only around one in a million people in Britain are named Matuszek.
