My grandfather grew up in the farming village Borzymy, northeastern Poland in the late 1800s. His name was Antoni Tenanis. Does anyone know the source of this surname?

Which Borzymy?

17-322 Borzymy, siemiatycki, Podlaskie, Polska
18-411 Borzymy, łomżyński, Podlaskie, Polska
18-507 Borzymy, kolneński, Podlaskie, Polska
05-281 Borzymy, wołomiński, Mazowieckie, Polska

And the family name Tananis... You can find 20 persons with such a name in Poland now: http://www.moikrewni.pl/mapa/kompletny/tananis.html.

It could be of Lithuanian origin, as you may find in:
