Anastazy is Greek, Polish in Origin.

Anastazy is the Polish masculine form of the ancient Greek name Anastasios (Latin Anastasius), built from anástasis, “resurrection” or “rising again.” Its meaning ties the name to themes of rebirth and new life, which helped it gain currency in Christian contexts. The Polish feminine counterpart is Anastazja (internationally Anastasia).

Across history the name was borne by numerous saints and clerics, including the Persian martyr Saint Anastasius and several early popes named Anastasius, as well as the Byzantine emperor Anastasius I; such figures kept the name in liturgical and scholarly use across Europe. In Poland, Anastazy appears in older parish records and monastic registers, now rare and somewhat archaic. Cognates and variants include Greek Anastasios, Latin Anastasius, Russian Anastasiy, Ukrainian Anastasii, Italian/Spanish Anastasio, Portuguese Anastácio, French Anastase, Romanian Anastasie, Czech/Slovak Anastáz, and Hungarian Anasztáz, with the widespread feminine Anastasia/Anastazja.
