Name Meaning
1 English (mainly Kent): nickname from Middle English pē, pā ‘peacock’ ( see Peacock ).2 English: from an early medieval personal name, apparently masculine, but of uncertain origin; perhaps derived from 1, or, as Reaney suggests, a survival of Old English Pæga.3 French: habitational name from places called Le Pay, in Indre, Rhône, and Vendée. This may also be a variant of pays ‘region’, ‘country’, used to denote a local person.
