Houma has/had a pretty large Italian influence as well.
Rouses, from Houma, doesn’t sound much like an Italian name but I’ve read their roots are Italian, as are many grocers in New Orleans and surrounding areas. My favorite grocery is Zuppardos where all of owners are named Joe or Joey. (jk)

Makes sense as a lot of them were involved in produce. That's actually how the Saias got their start as well, hauling produce.
