Name Meaning
Some characteristic forenames: French Normand, Armand, Andre, Emile, Marcel, Fernand, Lucien, Renald, Adrien, Aime, Alain, Alphe.
French: variant of Labrèque, a habitational name from La Brèque in Seine-Maritime, named with the Norman form of brèche ‘breach, gap’ (see Labreche ). The surname Labrecque is virtually non-existing in France; in North America it may thus (also) be an altered form of Labrèque or a shortened form of Delabrecque, a variant with fused preposition de ‘from’. Compare Labrake , Labrec , and Labreck .
