Polish wiki says that Boris (in Polish Borys) comes from what's called proto-Bulgarian. First recorded in writing as the name of of Boris I of Bulgaria:

Bogus³aw was firt noted in Poland at the beginning of the 13th century.

Bronimir is not noted in old Polish writings but it's use is assumed due to several city names that are derived from it.
