According to some sources, the place was first mentioned in 1270 as Mistrevich . However, according to the Encyclopedia of Villages in Medieval Poland, it was first mentioned in 1398 as Mistrzowicze . The patronymic name is derived from the word mistrz (master, later scholaster ) in the medieval sense teacher with the typical West Slavic suffix - (ow) ice, the form Mistrz-ej-owice appeared in the 19th century.
