Hello, I am currently researching several older Polish sources and have come across the phrase "imci pana" when describing someone . I have not been able to find any difinitive explanation to what this means. Is there anyone who knows what it means ?

It must be old Polish and it means Sir or dear Sir.

imć

an abbreviation 'jego miłość' (his love) formerly used as a polite expression, mostly before a last name or title

imć pan (very roughly) 'your most honorable lord'

imci pana the same but in the genitive/accusative case

"skrót zwrotu jego miłość, używany dawniej jako wyrażenie grzecznościowe, przeważnie przed nazwiskiem lub tytułem
Imć wojewoda.. ."

Is it related to "mocium panie"?

Not necessarily, "mocium panie" was Fredro's idea.
