Etymology

Joué is first mentioned as Joseio in 1186.[2][3]

It belongs to the long list of Gallo-Romance toponyms such as Joué, Jouy, Gouy and Occitano-Catalan Gaujac having as origin Gaudiacu cf. Joué-en-Charnie (Sarthe, Gaudiaco 1186) or Joué-Étiau (Maine-et-Loire, Gaudiacus AB 7th, etc.[2] It is a compound of Gaudi(us), a Christian name based on gaudius "joy" and the Gaulish (Celtic) suffix -acum "place, property" cf. Welsh -og.[2]

Its Breton name is Yaoued. The Breton name of the people from Yaoued is Yaouedad (for men) and Yaouedadez (for women).

Sur-Erdre ("Upon-the-Erdre") was added in the 19th century and it refers to the river name Erdre, itself from a Celtic *ered "running stream". The river is mentioned as Erda in the 11th century[4]

History

In the 9th century, to shield the country from Norman invasion waves, a fort called Alon was built on what is now known as Joué-sur-Erdre.[7]

At the beginning of the 13th century, the castle of Vioreau and its neighbouring lands were called "Joué" referring to the lord who lived in, Hervé de Joué. In this time, Joué was the heart of the greatest seigniory near Nantes with a surface reaching twenty parishes in the 16th century. It was later assimilated in the Barony of Chateaubriant.[7]

Two castles still exist in the parish, Lucinière and la Chauvelière. In the first one used to live the bishops of Nantes from the 15th to the 16th centuries. The castle of la Chauvelière used to belong to the Brittany chancellor.[7]

On 13 August 1487, after the failure of the siege of Nantes (from 19 June to 6 August 1487) hold by the duc de Bretagne, King Charles VIII and Anne of Beaujeu encamped with their troops in Joué.[7]

In 1592, during the Holy League, Joué-sur-Erdre and Nort-sur-Erdre hosted 12,000 French and Spanish troops headed by the Duke of Mercœur.[7]

On 30 May 1847, the village took its current name of Joué-sur-Erdre.[7]
