Parys is in Origin.

Parys is a modern and Slavic-leaning spelling of Paris, used in English and notably the standard Polish form of the Trojan hero’s name (Parys). The personal name Paris comes from Greek myth and has obscure etymology, while the place-name Paris derives from the Gaulish Parisii tribe; as a given name it can thus signify “from Paris (the city)” or evoke the legendary prince. In Wales the spelling also resonates with Parys Mountain on Anglesey, named for medieval landholder Robert Parys, which has helped the form feel locally familiar.

As a given name, Paris appears in medieval English records and in Shakespeare (Count Paris in Romeo and Juliet). The spelling Parys occurs in Poland for boys and in Britain and the U.S. as a unisex creative variant. Related forms and spellings include Paris, Parris, Paryss, Paryse, and the surnames Parisse/Parrish; Parisa is Persian and etymologically unrelated.
