Where did Cadillac get its name?
A. Cadillac was named after Antoine de La Mothe, Sieur de Cadillac, the
French explorer that founded Detroit in 1701.
B. Cadillac was founded by and named after Basam Kadilak. The spelling was
changed to make the word sound "less abrupt."
C. The company name was originally Caudillo, Spanish for leader. That name
was often mispronounced by English speakers, thus a new name, Cadillac, was
created from scratch by the company's marketing office in 1904.
