Best Answer

The term "Cajun" comes from the word "Acadian," referring to the French colonists who settled in Acadia (now Nova Scotia) in the 17th century. After being expelled by the British in the mid-1700s, many Acadians migrated to Louisiana, where their culture and cuisine evolved into what is now known as Cajun.
