According to this site: http://www.skarbczyk.com/index.php?mid=l&l=m, it doesn't look like there is a true translation for it to English. I have a cousin who used the name Melvin. Someone on this mail list once said they had a relative that used the name Mitch & Mitchell. Anything is game on this one.

I agree with Tina--below. There is no true translation. My Dad's given name was Mieczylaw. He legally changed his name to "Max". Others I know changed to "Matthew" but neither are the equivalent of the Polish original. My grandmother called my dad by the diminutive "Mietek".
