Did You Know? Québec Généalogie - What is a 'dit/dite' name?  When the first settlers came to Québec from France it was a custom to add a 'dit' nickname to the surname. The English translation of 'dit' is 'said'. The Colonists of Nouvelle France added 'dit' names as distinguishers. A settler might have wanted to differentiate their family from their siblings by taking a 'dit' name that described the locale to which they had relocated. The acquiring of a 'dit' name might also be the result of a casual adoption, whereby the person wanted to honor the family who had raised them. Another reason was also to distinguish themselves by taking as a 'dit' name the town or village in France from which they originated. This custom ended around 1900 when people began using only one name, either the 'dit' nickname or their original surname.

"On 26 May 1665... he was going to start a home with Genevieve Gandin..."

"Her father Barthelemi had contracted at La Rochelle on 5 June 1643, to come to Canada a a cooper for Guillaume Couillard. Looking back, we note that on 20 January 1647, Marthe Cognac, originally from the town of Marans, was joined in bonds of matrimony to Barthelemi Gandin at La Rochelle. Their eldest daughter Genevieve was baptized at Quebec on 30 January 1649. At the ceremony was godfather Guillaume Couture, godmother Genevieve Bourdon, and the Jesuit priest Joseph-Imbert Duperon, officiating. Genevieve grew up in the capital of the colony and, what is more, she knew how to write her name."

"... The religious blessing at Sillery only took place on Tuesday, 3 November 1665, in the presence of Father Henri Nouvel, at the same time as the wedding of Pierre Cochereau and Marie Vaublin. The two acts were recorded at the cathedral of Notre-Dame de Quebec."
