The parish was named after Saint Pancras, a 14-year-old boy who had converted to Christianity and would not renounce his faith. As a result, he was beheaded by Diocletian in Rome in 304AD. He is the patron saint of children. St Pancras is a Greek name meaning 'the one that holds everything'.

Apparently St Pancras is the patron saint of indoctrinating children to become martyrs of their religion.
