your last name

Posted by Yvette <yvetteobaptiste@gmail.com> on Sun, 12 Jul 2009, in response to I would like to know, posted by Neisha Baptiste on Fri, 09 Mar 2007

Your last name is of French origin. There are many derivatives and is sometimes spelled Baptist, Batist
My grandfather actually spelled his without the e at the end but my father added the e...or the story goes anyway. My grandfather was from Panama, but his ancestors were Haitian and Barbadian. Hope this helps. There is also a group of Baptiste in the Pasadena, Altadena and Los Angeles area. My family is in San Diego and New York area. I have a large family if you think we might be related email me.
