                                      Hi Hank,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are no people in Poland bearing &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Nizolak &lt;/span&gt;surname. It is possible that your surname was modified &amp;quot;on the way&amp;quot; from &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Niziołek&lt;/span&gt;, which sounds and looks very similar and is popular here in Poland.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Niziołek&lt;/span&gt; means hobgoblin, sprite, imp.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2002 there were 3237 people bearing the surname Niziołek living in Poland. They were mainly concentrated in the south-eastern part of today's Poland. Detailed map can be found here: &lt;a href=&quot;https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Nizio%C5%82ek&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Nizio%C5%82ek&lt;/a&gt; . &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Listen how your surname is pronounced in Polish (speakers turned on): &lt;a href=&quot;http://say.expressivo.com/N1K0oKin&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://say.expressivo.com/N1K0oKin&lt;/a&gt; .&lt;br /&gt;
