Well Cajun "French" does contain some Spanish. My grandmother was a Romero from New \Iberia.
My last name is very French, but was actually German before the Palatinate Exodus.

My last name in its full expression is incredibly French, but got bastardized when they came over here. Turns out most em were Norman French

So is there any town in Louisiana where the majority of the population still speak French as their first language? I've always wondered as an outsider.

Spell check, lol
Spell check indeed. I married a Thibodeaux because I couldn't learn how to spell her last name. Been married 60 years, and I just figured it out last week.

New Iberia was a Spanish settlement, hence the name “New Iberia”.

The only one I don't know personally is Bourgeois. I've known people from the rest of the list.

Nor are any of the other French names in my family history.
