Zając (Polish pronunciation: ['zajɔnts], archaic feminine: Zającowa, plural Zającowie) is one of the most common surnames in Poland and the third most popular in Lesser Poland. The English translation of this surname is "hare".[1] The surname occasionally appears as Zajonc due to the Polish pronunciation of ą as "on", however, the vowel is usually rendered as "a" outside Poland, producing Zajac. The latter form may also come from Slovak, Sorbian, Serbo-Croatian, or Belarusian cognates.
Notable people with the surname include:
- Bogdan Zając (born 1972), Polish football defender
- Czesław Zając, Polish sport shooter
- Jack Zajac (born 1929), American artist
- Józef Zając, (1891–1963), Polish general
- Karol Zając (1913-1965), Polish alpine skier
- Marcin Zając (born 1975), Polish football midfielder
- Marek Zając (born 1973), Polish football defender
- Stanisław Zając (1949–2010), Polish politician
- Travis Zajac (born 1985), Polish-Canadian hockey player
- Robert Zajonc (1923–2008), Polish-American social psychologist
