Re: Napoleon
in reply to a message by ari.
I was born in Poland and Polish language sources list these names for his children:
Władysław Wincenty Krasiński
Zygmunt Jerzy Krasiński
Maria Beatrycze Krasińska
Eliza KrasińskaI don't know where Graciosa comes from as it would not be used in Polish. Perhaps she was just given this nickname meaning graceful in other languages. Also the Polish forms of Beatrix are Beatryks and Beatrycze.

Yeah, I'm Polish too, but I can't say I looked very hard for the middle names haha. I was also surprised by Graciosa, but the English Wikipedia lists her as Graciosa Maria or Maria Beatrix.
