Dehoux Surname User-submission:
Dehout comes from de hout, which means 'the wood' in Dutch. It's likely to be first given to a carpenter, a woodcutter, a ranger, or someone who lived by a wood.
The pronunciation, hout, is very close to hoed (which means 'hat' in Dutch), and as we know words change as times goes by, it's also possible, yet less likely, to be first given to a milliner.

Dehoux Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
Dehout comes from de hout, which means 'the wood' in Dutch. It's likely to be first given to a carpenter, a woodcutter, a ranger, or someone who lived by a wood.
The pronunciation, hout, is very close to hoed (which means 'hat' in Dutch), and as we know words change as times goes by, it's also possible, yet less likely, to be first given to a milliner.
Since names were given around 1800, when Belgium was Dutch, we can't know for sure if it was given to a Dutch family who moved in Belgium or if it was given to a Belgian one. But as the name is most prevalent in Belgium, it would have been given in that area.
