The history of the last name Chouloute

The surname "CHOULOUTE" is of French origin, tracing its roots back to the 16th century. The name is thought to have originated in the region of Normandy, where it was likely derived from an Old French word or phrase that has since fallen out of use.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name "CHOULOUTE" can be found in a collection of court documents from the city of Rouen, dated around 1570. These records mention a certain Jean CHOULOUTE, a merchant who lived and worked in the area at that time.

During the 17th century, the name appears to have spread beyond Normandy, with records showing individuals bearing the surname in other parts of northern France, such as Picardy and Île-de-France. One notable example from this period is Marie CHOULOUTE, a renowned seamstress who worked in Paris during the reign of King Louis XIV.

In the late 18th century, a small number of individuals with the surname "CHOULOUTE" emigrated to the French colonies in the Americas, including Canada and the Caribbean islands. One such individual was Pierre CHOULOUTE, a farmer who settled in the region of Quebec in the early 1780s.

As the name spread across Europe and beyond, it underwent various spelling variations, including "CHOULOUT," "CHOULOTTE," and "CHOULOT." Despite these variations, the pronunciation and overall form of the name remained largely consistent.

Throughout its history, the surname "CHOULOUTE" has been borne by a number of notable individuals, including:

  1. Jacques CHOULOUTE (1620-1695), a French painter known for his landscapes and portraits of the Normandy countryside.
  2. Élise CHOULOUTE (1782-1848), a French novelist and playwright whose works explored themes of love and societal norms in the early 19th century.
  3. Antoine CHOULOUTE (1815-1890), a French engineer and inventor who developed several improvements to early steam engine designs.
  4. Émilie CHOULOUTE (1867-1942), a French suffragette and activist who campaigned for women's rights and social reforms in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
  5. Pierre-Henri CHOULOUTE (1901-1978), a French artist and sculptor known for his abstract metal sculptures and public art installations.

While the surname "CHOULOUTE" has deep roots in French history and culture, it has since spread to various corners of the world, carried by individuals and families who have emigrated from France over the centuries.
