One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Lukaszczyk can be found in the parish records of the village of Kościelec in the Mazowieckie region of central Poland, dating back to the late 1500s. It is believed that the name may have initially emerged from this area.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, the Lukaszczyk name began to spread across various regions of Poland, with notable concentrations in the areas around Kraków, Lublin, and Białystok. The name also appeared in some historical documents and manuscripts from this period, although it was less prominent than some of the more widespread Polish surnames.
