He is documented in Quebec city in 1666 as Jean Bernard. He and some of his descendants bore the secondary surnames Anse and Hanse, because his original forename must have been Hans (the German equivalent of French Jean, English John). Another bearer, from La Rochelle, is documented in Quebec city in 1676; and a third, from the Poitou region of France, was also documented in Quebec city, in 1713, with the secondary surname Léveillé.

The bird name is most unlikely to be the source of the surname.English : possibly a habitational name from North and South Perrott in Somerset, which are named for the river Parret, on which they stand.
