📖 À propos Priscilla
Priscilla est un prénom latin signifiant 'ancienne' ou 'vénérable,' issu du mot romain 'priscus.' Il a acquis une importance précoce grâce à une figure du Nouveau Testament — Priscille de Rome — enseignante et compagne de saint Paul. Populaire parmi les colons puritains en Amérique coloniale et à nouveau aux États-Unis au milieu du XXe siècle, son usage a progressivement diminué tout en conservant une grâce intemporelle.
