The given name is Tadeusz, the Polish form of Thaddeus.

I’m really stuck on the surname though. It looks like “SwyXrowski”, but I’m stumped in what the fourth letter could be.

Swyrkowski? Except there is also a dot as if there is an i or j somewhere (Swi... Swij...?). I'm thinking that is is a name similar to Swierkowski and Swirkowski, with a less common spelling. :?:

Could it be Swierkowski with some kind of fancy or old-fashioned e? Writing a small r by hand in a way similar to a printed big R isn't really uncommon, and Swierkowski seems to be one of the few suitable options that Google knows of.
