Comments for the name Pari

Famous bearer: Pari de Bordeaux, the artist who painted the protection of St. Mark saving Venice.

"The Story of Prince Achmed and the Fairy Paribanu" is a story in The 1001 Nights (Arabian Nights). I never realized till now that Paribanu's name means "fairy lady"! Makes the title a bit redundant: Prince Achmed and the Fairy Fairy-Lady. Beautiful story, though. Adapted into the animated silent movie "The Adventures of Prince Achmed" in the '20s.
