Subject: Name of "Paris"
Author: Paris   (guest, 68.201.45.97)

Paris has become a "girls" name recently due to the famous "Paris Hilton" but did you know that it was a male name first! William Shakespeare has written plays such as "Romeo and Juliet" (Juliet was to marry Paris but loved Romeo) and "Troilus and Cressida" were Paris was a MAN! There are males named Paris long before there were girls.
