According to the wikipedia entry en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feast_of_St._Stephen Poland doesnt celebrate St. Stephen's day... known as Boxing Day in the UK

How is this day, 26 December, celebrated amongst our Polish friends and what is it called...?

I have my Name Day on the 26th

Family tradition dictates that I spend this day in the kitchen, with a bottle of brandy, cooking the English version of Christmas dinner.

Polish Christmas first then an English one [a day late]
