Origin of the name
Until 2021, the central strip facing the Église Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis had no official name, although it was customary to call it the Place Saint-Paul. Both the "square" and the metro station take their names from the local church, the Église Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis. The area is also called "Métro Saint-Paul". A hotel nearby, perhaps acknowledging the unofficial nature of the "Place Saint-Paul" name, calls itself "Hôtel de la Pointe Rivoli".
