Payce

Payce is a masculine name found in English, Spanish, and Italian that has two possible origins for baby to get on board with. A respelling of the surname Pace, Payce may derive from the Latin pax, meaning “peace,” typically referring to the Virgin Mary’s epithet: Nuestra Señora de la Paz, “Our Lady of Peace.” Payce may also be inspired by the Hebrew word for Passover, Pesach, one of the three Jewish festivals celebrating the Biblical story about the freedom of the Israelites from Egypt. No matter your connection to this pious appellation, baby Payce will always be reminded to keep pace with the beat of their heart.
