BU£DAN/BO£DAN: the root of these names is the word "bo³da" or "bu³da" (lump, bump, tumour or somethign enlarged or swollen). No PC back then -- every irregularity was eagerly latched onto and often nicknamed.

BURY: means dark brownish-grey; Burówna would be the version applied to Bury's unmarried daughter. His wife would be Burowa.
