Background Story

Paige comes from an English surname meaning "servant, page" in Middle English, ultimately derived via Old French and Italian from the Greek paidion, "little boy". As a given name for girls it drew some public attention from a character in the 1958 novel Parrish and its 1961 film adaptation, and saw a larger surge in popularity in the 1980s, probably due to the character Paige Matheson from the American soap opera Knots Landing.
