Something to know that probably helps: sz ~= sh in English cz ~= ch in English w == v

  So Mishchonov, roughly?

    Mshchonoov There's no i after m, and ó makes oo sound.

      As a non-Pole, I can't be 100% sure, but isn't it closer to: Mishchonoof ? Trying to see if I remember my Polish..

        No, ajuc is right. I'm not Polish but have been living in Poland for a few years

        There's definitely no "i" there. The "v" at the end can get devoiced to "f" in casual speech, but people don't think of it as "f", because in other forms of the word, where it has postfixes - it still has to be pronounced as "v". It's a little like "speakin'" vs "speaking".
