Meaning & History

(female), (male) As a male name in occasional use from the Middle Ages on, this was taken from Greek legend. Paris was the son of Priam who carried off Helen from Sparta to Troy and so caused the Trojan War; his name is of uncertain, probably non-Greek, derivation. Its more frequent use as a modern first name for boys and more especially girls seems to represent an adoption of the name of the French capital (derived from the name of a Gaulish tribe, known in Latinized form as the Parisii, who once lived on the site where the city came to be built).
