Morphology

Tadeusz + Andrzej + Bonawentura + Kosciuszko

This item is a full personal name (proper noun); its meaning as a historical Polish military leader cannot be derived from the individual name components. A B1 learner who 'knows' the constituent name tokens would not be able to infer the biographical role or significance from them, so the expression is idiomatic/lexicalized and opaque.

Etymology

Tadeusz Andrzej Bonawentura Kosciuszko was a Polish military leader who fought for American independence and later led a national uprising in Poland. Because he fought for 'freedom' in both places, his name is remembered as a symbol of 'patriotism' and 'liberty'.
