Pearse

Pearse is a given name of Irish origin, derived from the Irish name Pearsach, which means "peaceful" or "tranquil." The name has been used as both a first name and a surname. It is often associated with Irish culture and history, particularly due to its connection to Pearse, the pen name of Irish revolutionary and politician Patrick Pearse.

The name has also been used in literature and popular culture, appearing in various works such as the novel "The Wind That Shakes the Barley" by Ken Follett.
