zjee:shah it is an approximation 'cause a couple of sounds in question do not exist in English language ee: is shorter than usual in English btw Zdzisia is a pet/short name for Zdzisława (zjee:swavah)

Polish_Princess: Zdzisia but i dont know how to pronounce it can sumone please help me! if i'm not mistaken, i think it's originally spelled 'Ździsia' or 'Żdzisia', and pronounced like zh-jee-shah

no. Its spelled Zdzisia. You're pronounciation is acceptable (many people pronounce it like "Ździsia", but never "Żdzisia") but it's more a quoloqial mumble than the proper and clear pronounciation. "Z" like "z" and there's dzi (more less like English "j" but more softer) and "sia" (more less like shia pronounced in one syllabe)
