Meaning: The name is found in particular in Normandy, Picardie and Lorraine. It can have several meanings. It is initially a fairly common place name with the meaning of "hut" (meaning of the word Champagne according Pégorier), probably also "hill" if one believes the Lorraine diminutive "hochot" (= hill). It is also a variant of the name Hoch Alsatian (German "Hoch" = high, high). Hoche (s) is also certified as a first name in various medieval texts, particularly in Belgium. Some authors believe that, in this case, there should be a variant of Hughes. This was particularly the opinion of Föstermann the nineteenth century. This explanation could be also valid for Hoc names, or Hocq Hock (Pas-de-Calais, Moselle), as well as various derivatives (Rattle, Hochard etc.).
