The "Dit" Name : French-Canadian Surnames, Aliases, Adulterations, and Anglicizations
Description
American exploration of the transition and development of French Canadian surnames in the United States, with a particular emphasis on those names now found in various forms in the New England states. The term "dit," translated as "called" or "a.k.a.," refers to the disconnect between one's spoken name and one's actual given name or family surname. Originally published in 1993 under the shortened title, "French-Canadian surnames, aliases, adulterations, and anglicizations."
