Yeah, it is Polish, but "Kryptopolis" has two Greek words in it. Polis means "city". Krypto is a verb which means "to hide". Krypte is a "hidden place" or crypt, and it could be translated as "shelter" as well.

In the Spanish translation, the Fallout "vault" is called refugio, which means "shelter".
