I'm afraid I don't get the question that is being asked and
the drashot to explain.
As a youngester I learned that 14 Nissan is the day of
korban Pesach and is therefore called Pesach. Hag Hamatzot
starts the next day, 15 Nissan, and continues for seven
days.
I've never questioned this or saw any mixup and have not
been disturbed by the usual reference to the seven day
holiday in English and Yiddish as Peisach.

David
