The authoress returns to an issue not settled in her book 'Slowianskie imiona kobiece' (Slavic Feminine Names) (1961): 'If the (Old) East Slavic feminine given name 'Jaroslavna' was created from 'Jaroslav' (and 'Jaroslavna' was the daughter of 'Jaroslav'), then ' -na' has a patronymic meaning. Is this proportion therefore valid: 'Jaroslavna' : 'Jaroslav' = 'Dobrochna' : 'Dobroch'?' On the basis of Latin citations from the 'Slownik staropolskich nazw osobowych' (Dictionary of Old Polish Personal Names) such as ' 'Pacoslaus', heres de Miculouicz una 'cum filia sua Pachna' (1359)' and ' 'Kliszna, filia Clementis' Gruska de Slupow (1388)'- that is, ' 'Pakoslaw', lord of Mikulowice, 'with his daughter Pachna' '(year 1359), and ' 'Kliszna, daughter of' Klich (= 'Klemens') Gruszka of Slupów'- she presents the hypothesis that old Polish names of daughters were created with the addition of the suffixes '-ch-na' and '-sz-na' (there are few examples) from shortened names of their fathers.
