Small or humble and highly praiseworthy
A compound name combining Paul, meaning 'small' or 'humble', and Anthony, which is derived from the Roman family name Antonius and often interpreted as 'praiseworthy' or 'priceless'. This combination blends two classic, saintly names into a single modern double-barreled form. It is rare in the United States and often used to honor family members with both names.
