    My last name is Hadámek. Does anyone know what it means? Is it even Czech? I was born in Ostrava, Czech Republic, but now I live in Canada.

    Hadámek is one of many variants derived from the first name Adam - in fact, it means little Adam, and it is a common Czech surname.

    Interesting. I was also told that it could come from "Hadam" a mongol name that later changed to "Hadámek". But I like your answer better. If anyone has more information to add-please do! I would love to learn more.
