The Dictionary of Polish Place Names (Nazwy Miejscowe Polski<\/em>) explains the origin of place names in Poland and details how the place name changed over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The present-day town of Dubiecko<\/a> in Podkarpackie Voivodeship was established in the year 1407 under Magdeburg Law. According to Polish Place Names<\/em>, the new town took its name from a neighboring village called Dubiecko, and the former village of Dubicko is now known as Wybrze\u017ce<\/a>.

The name Dubiecko originates from the Ukrainian word \u0434\u0443\u0431\u0435\u0446, meaning young oak, oak rod, twig, or rod. Through the years, the spelling of the town name appeared as Dubetsko in 1408, Dubeczco in 1426, oppidum Dubiecko in 1441, Dubyeczko in 1515, and finally as Dubiecko in 1589, 1794, 1881, and 1966.<\/p>\n\n\n
