Tesson
Tesson is a commune in the Charente-Maritime department in southwestern France.
==Toponymy==
According to a widespread theory, that name, which is not unique to this particular commune, is a distortion, in the medieval period, from the Late Latin ''taxo, ionis'', itself of Celtic origin, meaning “the badger”. In Old French, it became Taisson. The first settlements were allegedly built in a place where badgers used to dig their burrows.
But the name Tesson could also very well be a reference to a Gallo-Roman villa belonging to a certain Tessius or Thessius,〔Origine des noms de villes et villages de Charente Maritime par Jean-Marie CASSAGNE et Stéphane SEGUIN aux Editions Bordessoules, 1998〕 hence in Latin ''Tessionem'' (Tessius estate and ''Tessianus, a, um'' as an adjective (applied to ''villa'' or ''fundus'') and, alternatively, ''Tessiacum'', with the suffix of Gallic origin ''acum'', also meaning "belonging to".
In fact, in some ancient documents, including the lists of parishes of the archpriest of Pons (diocese of Saintes) contained in two “pouillés” (a “pouillé” being an inventory of ecclesiastical benefices) of 1648 and 1683, the village seems to be called Thessac, which clearly originates from Tessiacum.
