Help[Facts] Re: Use of PATRICK and PATRICIA before St.Patrick?
in reply to a message by Andy ;—)
According to these:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monica_of_Hippo
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/10482a.htm
Monica's husband was named Patricius, so the name was definitely used before St. Patrick. No idea when was the first occasion though.
