Przewalski is the Polish spelling of the name Przhevalski. The horses were named after a Colonel Nikolai Przhevalski. Why the Polish spelling I wouldn't know but why the Russian colonel is explained in the Wikipedia article. Tchotchke is from the Yiddish. See again Wikipedia form more info on tchotchkes.
