Maciej does not mean Michael.
If you click on Maciej it says "Polish form of MATTHIAS" ... However, the Polish form of Matthias/Matthew is [also] Mateusz. I actually had no idea that Maciej and Mateusz are related.
BUT definitely NOT Michael.

In Polish Michael is Michal. Not sure about Lithuanian.
