> Polish law has some strict limitations on baby names
It's not that strict. It's basically ensuring that if you want to give your child a name it will need to be actual human name (recognizable as a name in Poland) not something offensive or random. It's basically a law to prevent parents from harming their children by naming them something retarded they found fashionable at the time.
It's enough that you burdened your child with life. Further harming it with a weird "name", the Polish law considers a bit much.
You can download a list of names of living Polish people who have national id number assigned (everybody?) here: https://dane.gov.pl/pl/dataset/1667,lista-imion-wystepujacych-w-rejestrze-pesel-osoby-zyjace https://dane.gov.pl/pl/dataset/1667,lista-imion-wystepujacyc...
It doesn't contain names that only a single citizen has.
