Meaning & History
The first element of this name is derived from Polish rodu "family", which is ultimately derived from Proto-Slavic rodъ "family". Also compare Polish rodzic "parent", Polish rodzina "family" and Polish rodny "fertile". The second element is derived from Slavic slav "glory". The name's meaning is thus roughly "family is glory". Also take a look at Rodzisław, which has virtually the same meaning.
