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
'Nicolas Peltier dit Marolles (1649-1729), the youngest of the family, lives at the trading post at Tadoussac, at the mouth of the Saguenay River, and is the first white pioneer to permanently settle in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region. Inspired by l'Histoire du Saguenay, Claire Domey's Ilinishu recounts the lives of Nicolas Peltier dit Marolles and his son, Charles, called 'Ilinishu' in the novel, as pioneers of Lac Saint-Jean. Elsewhere, Arthur Buis imagined a fantastic character and asked himself whether this Pelletier was a coureur des bois - independent fur trader -, a philosopher, or a hermit.'
