Oskořínek is a municipality and village in Nymburk District in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 600 inhabitants.

==Etymology== The name was derived either from the Czech word oskeruše (i.e. 'service tree'; in old Czech also oskoruše) or from the personal name Oskora, derived from the name of the tree. The initial name of the village was Oskořín. From the 16th century, the diminutive form Oskořínek is used.
