Dąbrowski is a habitational name derived from the placename Dąbrowa or Dąbrówka, which is used for several specific places in Poland or generically as "oak grove", the English meaning for these Polish words.[4][5] Variants of the surname include Dombrowski, Dobrowski, and Dobrosky.[6][7] Dobrowski also has an independent origin as a habitational name derived from the placename 'Dobrów'.[6] The text-figure below summarizes the relationships among these various words. In other Slavic countries, the same surname takes the form Dubrovsky, as the Polish "ą" corresponds to "u" in most other Slavic languages.

Polish "ą" (pronounced "om") corresponds to "u" in most other Slavic languages, i.e. Dąbrowski is equivalent to Dubrovsky in Ukraine and Russia. The latter countries also have forms such as "Dombrovsky" but at a lower frequency and often associated with Polish ancestry.
