Pascal
[ˈpæs.kəl]Meaning
from the Late Latin name Paschalis, meaning "relating to Easter"
Background Story
Pascal comes from the Late Latin name Paschalis, which meant "relating to Easter", from Latin Pascha "Easter", itself from Hebrew pesaḥ meaning "Passover". The same Latin word served for both holidays because Passover and Easter fall close together. The name is used in Bulgarian, Cornish, Croatian, Greek, Italian, Late Roman, Macedonian, Portuguese and Spanish, and also functions as a surname, as with Blaise Pascal.
