Etymology
Parsifal as a personal name comes from the same legendary knight, also seen as Perceval, so people use it to honour that story. A helpful way to remember the name is the picture of a brave seeker 'piercing the valley', which shows why someone named Parsifal may be linked with purity, courage, or a great quest.
