In the English-speaking world, a surname is commonly referred to as a last name because it is usually placed at the end of a person's full name, after any given names. In many parts of Asia, as well as some parts of Europe and Africa, the family name is placed before a person's given name.
The usage of personal names in Poland is generally governed by civil law, church law, personal taste and family custom. The law requires a given name (imię) to indicate the person's gender. Almost all Polish female names end in a vowel -a, and most male names end in a consonant or a vowel other than a.
Of the 100 most common names here, 42 end in “-son.” Sweden abounds in names ending in “-son” because of an old Nordic practice, before hereditary surnames were introduced, of using the father's first name, and the suffix “-son” for a son, or “-dotter” for a daughter.
Polish last names were most often derived from places, family patriarchs or nicknames. Names derived from places usually ended in -ski, meaning "of", and were reserved for nobility.

In explaining Polish last names, let's start with the most common ones most people recognize: names ending in “ski.” The suffix “ski” essentially means “from.” When combined with the prefix of a location, it creates a last name denoting where you are from. Note that the female form of “ski” is “ska.”
-ov is possessive; -vic (-vich, -vych, -wicz, etc.) means “son of”, as does -enko, -enka/-anka, -chenko, -chenka/-chanka.
Re: The -sky suffix on last namesBut most Poles (who are Christian) have names ending in -ski. In Russian, all nationalities and their corresponding languages start with a lower-case letter.
In the United States the most common name suffixes are senior and junior, which are written with a capital first letter (Sr. and Jr.) Jr. or II can be used when being named after the father, however they are both pronounced differently; Jr. is pronounced as junior and II is pronounced as the second.
Place-name suffix, originally denoting a town or enclosure of buildings.
Genealogists compile lists of ancestors, which they arrange in pedigree charts or other written forms. The word genealogy comes from two Greek words—one meaning “race” or “family” and the other “theory” or “science.” Thus is derived “to trace ancestry,” the science of studying family history.
