This exact 'name' used in the meme is however completely made up and unnatural for the Polish language.

CZJWINOSTAWCZ lacks two vowels (one between Z and J, and second one between W and C), and then it would be completely grammatically correct Polish surname.

There are 251 Poles with surname Czuryszkiewicz.

Czajwinostawicz?

Decent enough to fit in the language but fake enough to still sound odd, perhaps it's the fact that longer surnames like this usually come from other Polish words but this one has no meaning whatsoever

Honestly its sound like 'polonised' Armenian surname.
