Count: 0 — There are zero Polish boy names that start with Q meeting the stated criteria. No male given names attested in Polish usage or official registries begin with the letter Q. Interesting detail: Q appears in Polish only in foreign loanwords, some modern imports, and occasional surnames, but it does not form part of traditional Polish given-name lists.

Polish orthography and phonology do not use Q for native sounds, so names that begin with Q in other languages have no native equivalent in Polish. Historical name formation in Poland favors Slavic roots or Latin/Greek forms adapted to Polish spelling, and the sounds written as “qu” elsewhere are represented by K or KW in Polish. Official sources such as PESEL-based name statistics and standard Polish name dictionaries therefore register no commonly used, historically significant male given names that start with Q.

Expect close matches rather than true Q names. Foreign names like Quentin or Quirin can appear rarely among modern registrations, but they remain foreign imports and do not meet the requirement of being attested in ordinary Polish usage or name registries. Consult PESEL statistics and Polish name dictionaries for verified lists, or look instead at authentic Polish K‑names (for example Kacper, Karol, Kazimierz, Konrad, Krzysztof) when seeking traditional Polish alternatives.
