In their own languages, someone from Lund would be called: "someone from Lund" Only some towns and cities have special names for people who come from there. Lundiak sounds like a Polish name, as I said before. The "iak" part would mean "little". So, for my name, Renia, Reniak would mean "little Renia", but it's not a proper word, just slang or an affectionate term or pet name.
