ArchivesRe: I would like to know the meaning of my first name "Michoude"
in reply to a message by Michoude Marice Hebert Roussel
If you go to this website...
http://www.lockheedmartin.com/michoud/aboutus/history.htm
...you can read a little about Antoine Michoud, a 19th century French plantation owner in New Orleans who was perhaps that same Michoud after whom that street in New Orleans was named. You'll read in the article how Lockheed named their plant after him, as well. You might also want to try your public library there in Louisiana, and see if they have a local history collection which may have more detailed information on Antoine Michoud.
The name "Michoud" is a French diminutive of "Michael", which means: "Who is like God?"
