It is a rather french suisse surname. Coming from a place name like Miéville.

It comes probabùly from a name place in Switzerland: the area of Geneva or Lausanne or in France in the surroundings of LYON.
See the Swiss site "les patronymes suisses": place name Miéville.

I'm not positive, but I am pretty sure that Mivelaz means "wanting" in ancient French.
