Guide to Polish names

I may be able to read many names of people from eastern Europe, but Polish, Hungarian, Czech, and similar names baffle my tongue at times.

Help.

I have a friend from the Czech Republic called Ondrej (which I believe is pronounced Andre as in the French for Andrew) so I'd like to know how to pronounce Eastern European names as well

This could prove useful: http://dmorgan.web.wesleyan.edu/materials/ceelang.htm

It covers Albanian, Bulgarian, Czech, Greek, Hungarian, Polish, Romanian, Serbo-Croatian, and Turkish.

Sorry, no help here, but I commiserate with you. I live near Buffalo, NY and the phone books are swimming with Polish names.

I know a guy who's name is pronounced "zep-cow-ski" and it starts with an "R". WTF!!! 8-o

Non latin language names

I have actually thought of gathering up a transliteration table for the Russian/Ukrainian/Bulgarian/etc. names, and a little common musclehead vocab perhaps. I see lots of posts asking for peoples names when the name of the person is printed on the screen in Cyrillic letters.
