I associate Pascal so much with physics classes and as a unit measurement for pressure that I was a little taken aback at meeting a Pascal IRL- for a brief moment, it was like meeting someone named Millimeter or Kilogram! :b Pascal is a handsome upright-sounding name though, and Blaise Pascal would be a nice namesake- though IMO Blaise sounds cooler.
