Etymology
Chagnot, the Burgundian diminutive of Châgne for the Old French noun Chasne “oak”, can be found in two neighbouring lieux-dits at Ladoix-Serrigny: Les Chagnots and Clos des Chagnots, bordering the D974 Dijon to Beaune road that goes through the village. Indeed, these were places where oak trees were plentiful. (Cf. Chêne)
