Alternate Spelling(s):

Daigneault, Daigneau, Deniau, Daniau and many, many others!

Meaning:

Derived from Daniel, a masculine given name and a surname of Hebrew origin. It means, "God is my judge", and derives from two early biblical figures, primary among them Daniel from the Book

Additional Information:

(Above meaning copied and pasted from the Wikipedia entry for “Daniel”.)

Daignault/Daigneault is basically the Québec spelling of Deniau/Daniau, which is a diminutive form of Daniel, meaning “little Daniel” or “son of Daniel”, or potentially from Denis, a first or last name from the Greco-Roman name Dionysius, via one of the Christian saints named Dionysius.

North Americans named Daigneault (the most common spelling) are most likely descended from one of two probably unrelated French settlers of New France : Marin Deniau dit Destaillis (born 1620) and Jean Deniau (my ancestor, born 1629). Both sailed over with “la Grande ­Recrue” (“the great recrute") of 1653, which came over to help early settlers of what is now Montréal, who arrived in 1642.

The addition of the “lt” is probably a “contamination” from other names like Thibault or Renault, where the "lt" has an actual etymological raison d’être, usually from Germanic suffixes such as "ald" meaning old or" bald" meaning bold.
