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.

Biography
LAMARRE, dit Bélisle, HENRI (signed henry Lamars dit bellile and, after 1692, henrÿ Bélisle; É.-Z. Massicotte called him Henri Belisle-Levasseur on unknown authority), barber-surgeon at Quebec, Detroit, Champlain, and Pointe-aux-Trembles on Montreal Island; son of Antoine Lamarre, druggist, and Marguerite Levasseur of Saint-Michel-le-Palus parish in Angers (Maine-et-Loire); d. September 1740 at Pointe-aux-Trembles.
As a general rule, surgeons in New France were men of substance. Bélisle was an unhappy exception to this rule and he spent much of his life fighting a rear-guard action against his creditors. He was a druggist’s son and came to Quebec from Anjou after 1681. On 26 June 1690 he married Catherine Demosny, daughter of the late surgeon Jean Demosny*. The list of friends in their wedding contract, which included two Quebec surgeons, suggests that Bélisle was a recent immigrant to Canada. In the next decade he trained two apprentices and worked throughout the Quebec region....Read MORE...
