Pasqualine is a Romance feminine name meaning “of the Passover/Easter,” from Latin Paschalis via Greek Pascha and ultimately Hebrew Pesach.

The name conveys association with the Paschal feast and, by extension, children born at Easter.

In Catholic Europe it saw episodic use from the Middle Ages onward, especially where Easter-linked names were customary.
