someday i'll be in paris
The name Paris derives from that of its earliest inhabitants, the Gaulish tribe known as the Parisii. The city was called Lutetia (more fully,Lutetia Parisiorum, "Lutetia of the Parisii"), during the Roman era of the 1st to the 6th century, but during the reign of Julian the Apostate(360–363), the city was renamed Paris.
It is believed that the name of the Parisii tribe comes from the Celtic Gallic word parisio meaning "the working people" or "the craftsmen."
Paris has many nicknames, but its most famous is "La Ville-Lumière" ("The City of Light"), a name it owes first to its fame as a centre of education and ideas during the Age of Enlightenment, and later to its early adoption of street lighting. Since the mid-19th century, Paris has been known as Paname. ([panam]) in the Parisian slang called argot (
Moi j'suis d'Paname, i.e. "I'm from Paname"). The singerRenaud repopularized the term amongst the young generation with his 1976 album Amoureux de Paname ("In love with Paname").
