DeSutter is derived from the Latin word sutor (shoemaker) and is widely used in Flanders. One could translate DeSutter as 'The Shoemaker'. The first record of the name is from the 13th century in Flanders. DeSutters originated in the northernwestern parts of Belgium in the Ghent (Gent - East-Flanders) area near the English Channel, as well as in Northwestern France. Variants include De Sutter, DeSoto, DeZuter, DeZutter and De Zutter.
A majority of the DeSutters in United States are descended from people who moved there in the mid to late 19th and early 20th century. Most settled in the upper plain states of the Midwest (Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin and the Dakotas) for the vast farming lands as well as the Catholic mission work.
