IPA: /rɨx.'li.tski/ Mieczysław: /mjɛ.'tʃɨ.swav/ Kasia: /'kaɕa/ Raymund: /'raj.mund/ Jan: /jan/

Polish definitely does not have vowel length distinction. Also, depending on how much phonetic detail you want to have, /k/ in Rychlicki is prevelar, ts is an affricate.

With a minor correction that Mieczysław has /f/ rather than /v/ at the end, so does Rajmund ("Raymund" is not a Polish spelling).
