I thought that Pasche came from Christ's Passion (why Pasche flowers are also called Passion Flowers).

I'll admit that my direct reading of Old English documents only goes back as far as the 9th or 10th century, (though not just Bede), where the goddess seems to be referred to as Erce as well as Eostre and seems also to be related to an earth deity. Can you point me to a C7th source for an earlier reading?

Cheers!
