Pasqual is Italian in Origin.
Pasqual is the Catalan and Valencian form of a pan-Romance name rooted in Latin Paschalis, from Greek Pascha and Hebrew Pesach “Passover.” It means “paschal,” i.e., connected with Passover/Easter, and by extension “one born at Easter.”
Used since the Middle Ages across Iberia, Pasqual was often bestowed on children born or baptized during the Paschal season and later became a common surname through patronymic formation. The name is cognate with Pascual (Spanish), Pascal (French), Pasquale (Italian), and Pascoal (Portuguese); related nicknames and diminutives include Pascu, Pasqui, and Pasquino. Feminine counterparts include Pascuala, Pascale, and Pasqualina. Religious associations are strong: several medieval popes bore the Latin form Paschalis, and devotion to Saint Paschal Baylón (Sant Pasqual) sustained its popularity in Catalan-speaking regions and beyond.
