Post subject: Brzek
My grandmother's maiden name was Brzek. I'm wondering if it could have been shortened when she came to the U.S. Does anyone have an idea what it could have been shortened from? I can't find Brzek on any websites.
Brzęk (with hook below "e") from Polish brzęk- rattle, clang".
In 2002 there were 860 people using the surname Brzęk living in Poland, many of them in the old Galicia area. Detailed map can be found here https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Brz%C4%99k .
