Pris

Pris is an English feminine name that originated as a short form of Priscilla, itself derived from the Latin Prisca, a diminutive of the Roman family name Priscus, meaning old or ancient. The name gained broader cultural recognition through the character Pris in Philip K. Dick's 1968 novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and its 1982 film adaptation Blade Runner. Longer forms and close relatives include Priscilla and Prisca.
