The name of the ZEC is directly related to lake Lesueur, located in the northern part of zec. The lake is located at 5.3 km east of the Gatineau River, and is linked to a chain of lakes linked together by the Lesueur River (in the north-east to south-west) including lakes (starting from the most northerly): Carrière (Career), Pot (Jar), Dumain, "de la Vache" (Cow), Orphan, Lesueur, La Saussaye, Ouzel et Menneval. From the latter lake, Lesueur River flows west for 4 km to empty into the Gatineau River.

The name "Zec Lesueur" was formalized August 5, 1982 at the Bank of place names of the Commission de toponymie du Québec (Geographical Names Board of Quebec).[2]
