it's fairly common, although I am not sure what your request is.
I believe there are a lot of Kubiaks living in Poznan,which is a large city btw

There used to be a restaurant nearby called Kubiak's. It was a family restaurant. Some other people bought it out, though.

Kubiak is very popular in Poland.
The Name "Kubiak" came from surname Kuba (average form of Jakub in old times), propably used since XII century, and means just "Kuba's son".
