Answer 1

Paris is the name of the city in France, and there was a Greek warrior hero named Paris.  There's no other obvious meanings of the name.

Unfortunately, there is also "Paris Hilton", the notorious party girl, who will be associated with the name for the foreseeable future.

Your name is your own, and has meaning and significance far greater than what it technically means.  And it is a pretty freaking awesome city.

Behind The Names Says "In Greek mythology he was the Trojan prince who kidnapped Helen and began the Trojan War. Though presented as a somewhat of a coward in the 'Iliad', he did manage to slay the great hero Achilles. He was himself eventually slain in battle by Philoctetes."
