Patronymic nick meaning Mattson, Mathewson or Mathews. Since Polish is a variant-rich language, unlike the only two known English patronymics -- '-son' and 's' (as in Edwards) the first name Mateusz in Polish has also generated such patronymic nicks as Matusiak, Matuszczak, Matuszewski, Matuszkiewicz, Matyszkiewicz, Matys, Matyszewski, Matowski, Matuch, Matyga, Matyka and probably quite a few more.
