Talk:Maria Leszczyńska
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why is titled "Marie Leszczynska of Poland"? She was of Polish origin but a French queen so it rather should be titled "Marie Leszczynska of France", or simply "Marie Leszczynska" (I don't think there were any other famous Marie Leszczynskas). 130.79.154.83 15:45, 22 Feb 2004 (UTC)

- i dont think, that her name was "Maria Karolina Katarzyna Leszczyńska" .. Karolina is probably the english or french version of Katarzyna ;) .. so IMO her name ist "Maria Katarzyna Leszczyńska" ...Sicherlich 20:04, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
According to Polski Słownik Biograficzny her name was Maria Karolina Zofia Felicja Leszczyńska h. Wieniawa, which agrees with the entry for Louis XV in Burke's Royal Families of the World, where she is called Marie-Caroline-Sophie -Fe'licite'.
