Noble surnames, such as Chalamet, evoke images of the ancient homeland of the French people. The original bearer of the name Chalamet, which is a local surname, once lived, held land, or was born in the beautiful region of Lorraine. In France, hereditary surnames were adopted according to fairly general rules and during the late Middle Ages, names that were derived from localities became increasingly widespread. Local names originally denoted the proprietorship of the village or estate. The Chalamet family originally lived at the town of Paresse or Parez, in the Lorraine.
