Proper name [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /per.se.pʰó.nɛː/, /per.seˈɸo.ni/, /per.seˈfo.ni/, /per.se.pʰó.nɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /per.seˈpʰo.ne̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /per.seˈɸo.ni/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /per.seˈfo.ni/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /per.seˈfo.ni/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Possibly composed of the Proto-Indo-European elements *pers-o- (“sheaf of corn, grain, seed”, whence also Sanskrit पर्ष (parṣá-) and perhaps Latin porrum) + *gʷʰn̥-t- (“to strike down, slay”, compare φόνος (phónos, “killer”)) + *-eh₂ (a suffix of feminine agent nouns), thus originally meaning “female thresher of corn”. Compare Rigvedic पर्षान् हन्ति (parṣā́n hanti, “to thresh ears of corn”). Alternatively, from Proto-Indo-European *pers-é-bʰ(h₂)n̥t-ih₂ (“she who brings the light through”), akin to Albanian Prenda.
