Przemysl is Polish in Origin.
Przemysl is the diacritic-free form of a classic West Slavic masculine name: Czech Přemysl and Polish Przemysł. It derives from the Slavic elements pře-/prze- “over, very” and mysl “mind, thought,” conveying “one who thinks ahead,” “deliberate,” or “ingenious.” Related but distinct is Polish Przemysław (“glorious by thought”).
Borne by the legendary Czech founder Přemysl the Ploughman and by medieval rulers such as Přemysl Otakar I and II, the name also appears in Poland with the royal Przemysł II. Medieval Latin records use Premislaus or Premizlaus. Modern diminutives include Czech Přemek and Polish Przemek; anglicized spellings are Premysl or Przemysl. Usage today is uncommon but recognizable in Czechia and Poland. Note: Przemyśl is a Polish city name with different spelling and is not the given name.
