Pitof is French in Origin.

Pitof is best documented as a modern French byname rather than an inherited given name. Its root language is French, but no secure older form or lexical source has been established; the earliest clear public form is Pitof, the professional name of Jean-Christophe Comar, active in French film from the late twentieth century. The final -of is not a standard French name-forming suffix, and the sequence does not correspond to a transparent French noun or adjective. Its literal meaning is therefore unknown.

Usage is tied chiefly to France and to Comar, known for visual effects work and for directing Vidocq and Catwoman. As a pseudonym rather than a parish-register or saint’s-name tradition, it has no established religious association. Pitot, Pitois, and Pitou are separate French surnames or nicknames, not proven equivalents. As a baby name it remains exceptional.
