Greetings,
Here's the information we have on the name "Lisky."
Without more details, it's difficult to pin down an exact origin. However, it's probably from a Slavic language (most likely Polish), and probably is related to the word for "fox." Many Slavic languages have similar words for "fox," for example:
Czech Li{sv}ek (where {sv} is "s" with a v-shaped mark or "hachek."
This is pronounced "sh").
Polish lis
Russian lisa
It's also possible that this is related to the Hungarian "Liszkai."
