Origin
The surname ANDRIOT has its origins in France, where it first emerged in the early 13th century. It is believed to be derived from the Old French word "andrieu," which means "man" or "person." This name likely originated in the region of Champagne, where it was commonly used as a descriptive nickname for someone who was considered particularly manly or courageous.
One of the earliest recorded instances of the name ANDRIOT can be found in the Cartulaire de l'abbaye de Montier-la-Celle, a collection of medieval charters and documents from the Montier-la-Celle Abbey in Troyes, France, dating back to the year 1235. In this document, a certain "Guichard Andriot" is mentioned as a witness to a land transaction.
Another early reference to the name ANDRIOT can be found in the Fors de Béarn, a legal code from the medieval province of Béarn in southwestern France, which dates back to the late 13th century. Here, an individual named "Pey Andriot" is listed as a landowner in the village of Arette.
In the 14th century, the name ANDRIOT began to spread beyond the borders of France, appearing in various records and documents across Europe. One notable example is the Flemish painter and miniaturist Andrieu d'Andriot (c. 1335-1399), whose works can be found in several illuminated manuscripts from that period.
The ANDRIOT surname also has a strong historical presence in the region of Burgundy, where it was often associated with the wine-making trade. One prominent figure from this area was Jean ANDRIOT (1538-1608), a wealthy merchant and vineyard owner who served as the mayor of Beaune, a renowned wine-producing town in Burgundy.
In the 17th century, the name ANDRIOT crossed the Atlantic and made its way to the French colonies in North America. One of the earliest documented instances of the name in the New World is that of Jacques ANDRIOT (c. 1630-1680), a French settler and farmer who established himself in the region of Acadia (present-day Nova Scotia and New Brunswick).
As the centuries passed, the ANDRIOT surname continued to be carried by individuals from various walks of life, including artists, scholars, and military figures. Notable examples include the French painter Gustave ANDRIOT (1828-1907), known for his landscapes and genre scenes, and the World War I general Henri ANDRIOT (1864-1933), who commanded French forces during the Battle of Verdun.
Demographics
Among Census respondents with the surname Andriot, the largest self-reported group is White at 94.9%. The next largest groups are Hispanic (3.4%) and Asian/Pacific Islander (0.8%).
The bar chart below shows how Andriot bearers described their own race and ethnicity on the 2020 Census form. The Census Bureau groups responses into six broad categories: White, Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, Asian and Pacific Islander, American Indian and Alaska Native, and Two or More Races. When a category has too few respondents for a given surname, the Bureau suppresses the figure to protect individual privacy, which is why some names show fewer than six slices.
Percentages are shown for every Census year so the breakdown stays comparable over time. When the source file also includes raw headcounts, Name Census shows those alongside the percentages in the legend.
Keep in mind that these are self-reported numbers. A person's surname does not determine their race or ethnicity, and the distribution you see here reflects the specific population who happened to carry the Andriot surname at the time of the 2020 Census, not any inherent property of the name itself.

No. The Census Bureau only publishes surnames that appeared at least 100 times in a given decennial Census. That means very rare surnames are excluded entirely, and a surname can appear in one Census release but disappear from a later one if it falls below the reporting threshold.
There are two main reasons: rounding and suppression. The Census Bureau rounds published values, and it may suppress very small cells to protect privacy. For 2020, the Bureau also published raw group counts rather than direct percentages, so Name Census converts those counts back into shares for comparability across census years.
