Pasqual Troise
Pasqual is the Catalan equivalent of the Spanish given name Pascual, and a Venetian variant of Italian given name Pasquale. Pasqual is also a surname found in Spain (especially among the inhabitants of Catalan-speaking areas, including Andorrans, Valencians, Balearics) and in Italy (especially in Veneto, including Lombardy and Piedmont). Pasqual, like Pasquale (Italian), Pascal (French), Pascoal (Portuguese) and Pascual (Spanish), derives from the Late Latin ''paschalis'' or ''pashalis'', which means "relating to Easter" from Latin ''pascha'' ("Easter"), Greek ''Πάσχα'', Aramaic ''pasḥā'', in turn from the Hebrew ''pesach'', which means "to be born on, or to be associated with, Passover day". Since the Hebrew holiday Passover coincides closely with the later Christian holiday of Easter, the Latin word came to be used for both occasions. The names Pasquale, Paschal, Pascal, Pascale, Pascha, Pascoe and Pasco are all variations of ''Pasqual''. The feminine form, rat ...
