Although the standard Polish form of this name is Felicyta (which is itself a rare name), Felicitas has also enjoyed some use in Poland. No babies were given this name last year, but as of January this year, there have been 18 women with this first name in the whole Polish population. It seems like there is still no data for middle names in the whole population for this year or at least I haven't been able to find it, but last year (2021) 20 women bore the name Felicitas as a middle.
This is not something I know, just my assumption, but I'd think most of these women must have some strong German family connections. A Felicitas could celebrate her Polish name day together with Felicyta (November 23) and use similar nicknames as Felicyta and Felicja, including Fela, Felka, Felcia, Felunia, Felusia, Lunia, Lusia, Lisia, Felisia etc. Etc. Etc.
