Really liking the name Pascal. Is that mental hormones?
I grew up in Ireland and I'm sure I heard it somewhere maybe..
is it a nice name or am I mad to even consider?
*it's a boys name

Like Pascal O’Donoghue, that politician with the rather unusual voice?

Or the chameleon from Tangled?

Either way, it’s a negative from me.

Pedro is inexplicably much better?

Should add I like it in French. With an English accent it sounds pretty awful.

I say them the same in my French accent and my English one.

French and yes it's a boy's name. I like it.

Or a girl would be Pascale if you are following French naming strictly.

I just think of the chameleon from tangled 😂

Are you remembering a Paschal candle?
