Zotique Racicot, baptized François-Théophile-Zotique, (October 13, 1845 – September 14, 1915) was a Canadian Roman Catholic priest and Auxiliary Bishop of Montreal from 1905 to 1915.

St. Zotique Street in Montreal was probably named in his honour.[1] The name Zotique (Zoticus in Latin) is derived from the Greek adjective zotikos, meaning "of life".[2][3]
