Question: what is the meaning of the name pascal
Answer: Pascal derives from the Latin paschalis or pashalis , which means `` relating to Easter '' , from the Latin term for `` Easter '' , pascha , Greek Πάσχα , from the Aramaic pasḥā ( Hebrew pesach ) `` Passover '' ( since the Hebrew holiday Passover coincides closely with the later Christian holiday of Easter , the Latin word came to be used for both occasions ) .
