English: from the Middle English personal name Pascal, derived from Old French Pasquale and ultimately from Latin Paschalis ‘pertaining to Easter’ (from pascha ‘Easter’, via Greek and Aramaic from Hebrew pesah ‘Passover’). This was popular as a personal name throughout Christian Europe in the Middle Ages, mainly in honor of the festival of Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, often signifying someone born at Easter, but also in honor of a 9th-century pope and saint who bore the name.
French: variant of Pascal (a cognate of 1) and, in North America, (also) an altered form of this.
American shortened form of Greek Paschalis, which is of the same ultimate origin as 1 above, or of its patronymics and other derivatives, e.g. Paschalakis, Paschalides, Paschalidis, and Paschaloudis. Compare Pascal .
