[edit] Biblical
- Pharez, son of Judah and Tamar from the Old Testament of the Bible. The name is transliterated to English as both Perez (NIV, New American Standard Bible, English Standard Version, NKJV, NAB,...) and Pharez (KJV) and is transliterated as Fares, Phares, and Pérez in different Spanish language translations.
- The name of Shimon Peres, current President of Israel, is not derived from the Spanish name but from a Hebrew word, the translation of which is a simple version of "Upharsin", a Chaldean word meaning "to divide". However, in Spanish-speaking countries his name is often mistakenly identified with the Spanish one.

- Perez Hilton, alias of celebrity blogger Mario Lavandeira.
