Perce is a masculine name of English origin, typically considered a shortened form of Percival or Perseus. The name Percival derives from Old French and was popularized through Arthurian legends, where Percival was one of the Knights of the Round Table who sought the Holy Grail. As a diminutive, Perce emerged primarily in England and carries the same associations with chivalry, quest, and nobility. The name has remained relatively uncommon, maintaining a certain vintage English charm. Some may also associate it with the word 'pierce,' giving it a subtly strong quality. Perce has occasionally been used as a surname or place name in England as well.
