you have raised an interesting question but I might suggest checking into old french language as a source to the meaning of the word. Secondly remember Joan of Arc was fighting to put a Valois heir on the throne and after her defeat some families may have changed names voluntary or otherwise. It would be interesting to persue please keep in touch
