A name that means "mickiewicz grazyna 1823 lithuanian heroine".

Grazyna is from the Polish Grażyna — coined by Polish Romantic poet Adam Mickiewicz in 1823 from the Lithuanian gražus (beautiful, graceful). The story of Grażyna — the heroic Lithuanian princess + wife of Liutawor of Nowogródek who dies disguised in her husband's armor defending against the Teutonic Knights — is central to Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth heritage.
