The village is named in honour of Anthony the Great. From 1966, it was called St. Anthony until it was changed to Saint-Antoine in 1969. The village was originally called Higho Settlement. Saint-Antoine was the birthplace of Louis Robichaud, Canada's first elected Acadian provincial premier.
On 1 January 2023, Saint-Antoine amalgamated with all or part of six local service districts to form the new town of Champdoré.[2][3] The community's name remains in official use.[4]
