The chaussee Surname
chaussee Name Meaning and History
French (Chaussée): topographic name for someone who lived
by a paved road, French chaussée, a relatively rare feature
of the medieval countryside. The term is from Latin (via)
calciata ‘limed (way)’, from calx ‘chalk’, ‘limestone’,
genitive calcis. This word has also been used in naming a
number of French villages, and the surname may be a habitational name
from any one of these.
