Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses a secondary, figurative meaning of the proper name Misiewiczthat has evolved in the current political discourse in Poland. The data under examinationhave been retrieved during the years 2016-2017 from paper and electronic editionsof Polish newspapers and magazines, including online commentaries and opinionsof their readers. It is claimed that best documented and most frequent uses of the nameMisiewicz/e [SG./PL.] exhibit a paragonic sense. Barcelona’s [2003, 2004] model wasadopted in the explanation of the metonymic mappings underlying them.
