Meaning and history
Parris is an English given name transferred from a surname or used as a spelling variant of Paris. The surname may derive from someone associated with the French city of Paris, while the ancient Greek personal name Paris, borne by the Trojan prince, has a separate and uncertain etymology. These sources should not be merged into one meaning. Notable bearers include New Zealand choreographer Parris Goebel and American football player Parris Campbell.
