[edit] Oops ... What is this? Surname change, just for the fun of it?! Or not...?

You Polish guys out there, enlighten me, proszę! :) Well I ran the Polish article annotated from within "your" WP article through POLTRAN, and got some more information, that Ms Andrejczuk changed her surname to Andrzejewicz because old documents apparently told about her actual name? Or what reasons where there otherwise?

This is what POLTRAN spit out (with major edits and fixes):

"You have recently changed your surname from Andrzejczuk to Andrzejewicz. Why do you keep telling everybody that it's a 'private case'?"
Well, frankly, I had become eventually bored of my other name this year, simply because too many people have this name already, so, on the spur of the moment, I decided to change it, of course (laughs). Nah ... seriously though, the decision of changing the surname was because of a completely different reason. My dad has managed to recover documents, which underline the fact that our genuine surname IS Andrzejewicz; however, the surname of my great-grandfather, who was sent to the Army, was eventually Andrzejczuk, because of the following reason: when he joined up the Army, he joined up as Andrzejewicz, but when he quit military life, he quit with the name Andrzejczuk! This historical event happened during Russian annexation, and since I like truthfulness, I could no longer live with the thought of bearing an incorrect surname." -andy 92.228.11.77 (talk) 16:17, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
