Joullien Spelling Variations

French surnames were subject to numerous spelling alterations depending on the region and time it was used. The early development of the French language relied heavily on borrowing elements and grammar from other languages. For example, Old French was infused with Germanic words and sounds when barbarian tribes invaded and settled in France after the fall of the Roman Empire. Middle French also borrowed heavily from the Italian language during the Renaissance. As a result of these linguistic and cultural influences, the name Joullien is distinguished by a number of regional variations. The many spelling variations of the name include Julien, Juliens, Jullien, Juliene, Julliene, Julian, Juliane, Jullian, Julliane, Julienne, Jullienne, Juliens, Julliens, Julienes, Jullienes, Julianes, Jullianes, Julianne, Jullianne, le Julien, de Julien, le Jullien, Joulian, Joulien, Jouliens, Joulianne, Joullien, Joulliens, Joullian, Joulliane, Joulyen, Joulyens, Joullyen, Joullyens, Joulyenne, Joulyennes, Julyen, Julyens, Julyenne, Jylyennes, Jullyen and many more.

Migration of the Joullien family

In 1643, 109 years after the first landings by Cartier, there were only about 300 people in Quebec. Migration was slow. The fur trade attracted migrants, both noble and commoner. By 1675, there were 7000 French in Quebec. By the same year the French Acadian presence in the Maritimes had reached 500. The French founded Lower Canada, thus becoming one of the two great founding nations of Canada. The family name Joullien has made many distinguished contributions in France and New France to the world of science, culture, religion, and education. Amongst the settlers in North America with this distinguished name Joullien were François Julien who settled in Quebec in 1769; Louis Julien settled in Quebec in 1829; Jean Julien settled in Quebec in 1816; Nicolas Julien settled in Quebec in 1813.
