Claude

A Dictionary of First Names | 2006 | | Â© A Dictionary of First Names 2006, originally published by Oxford University Press 2006. (Hide copyright information) Copyright

Claude ♂ French: from the Latin name Claudius. It was borne by various early saints, but its popularity in France is largely due to the fame of the 7th-century St Claude of Besançon. This form is widely used in the English-speaking world and has superseded Claud as the preferred spelling in Britain and the United States.
