What is the literal meaning of Pique in the opera Pique de dame queen of spades?

The title of Tchaikovsky's opera is not Pique de Dame, but just Pique Dame, and this is not the original title - that is (quite logically) in Russian, but I must admit that I do not know this original by heart. Translations is Queen of spades, the families of cards in Franch are coeur (hearts), couque (the square red things), jacquet (jacks) and pique (spade).
