Stasiek is Polish in Origin.

Stasiek is a Polish hypocoristic of Stanisław, a pan‑Slavic name formed from the elements stan-/stać “to stand, become” and sława “glory, fame,” yielding the sense “one who attains glory” or “becomes renowned.” In Poland it serves as a warm, familiar address for boys and men named Stanisław, common in folk speech and 20th‑century urban usage. Though it appears occasionally as an independent given name, official records have traditionally favored the formal Stanisław, long esteemed through St. Stanislaus of Kraków (11th century) and prominent bearers such as King Stanisław Leszczyński.

Close Polish variants include Staś, Staszek, Stachu, and the feminine Stasia (from Stanisława). Cross‑linguistic cognates are Stanisław/Stanislaw (orthographic), Latin/German Stanislaus, French Stanislas, and Slavic Stanislav/Stanislav (various languages). Parallel diminutives abroad include Russian/Ukrainian Stas and Stasik, Czech Standa and Slávek, and South Slavic Stanko; an occasional Anglicized short form is Stash.
