Name
The settlement was historically known by its German name Steineck before 1945. After the end of World War II and the subsequent border changes in Central and Eastern Europe, the area was incorporated into Poland, and the current Polish name Grzędziczki was adopted as part of a policy to standardize geographical names and rename places in accordance with the Polish language and administration.[1]
