@zombiebunny17 Belle : adjective for lovely, nice, beautiful, etc female (hard to explain it) things or persons. But it's a name too and that must be short for Isabelle.
Lafu (lol broken french to make it easy to pronouce for english-speaking people) : LeFou (the crazy one). Maybe it's a nickname (Le Fou -> Le fou/l'idiot du village =The village idiot) but it's can be his last name too ! In France, some people has last names like this : le or la (the) + adjective. Example : le+doux -> LeDoux = the sweet one, LeRoux = the red-haired one, etc.
I've got a question for anyone who can answer: How well do the names translate to french? Like the little guy who follows around Gaston is named Lafu which in french means fool, so does it sound silly to a french person to name someone fool? Or any of their names for that matter lafu(fool), Bell (beauty), and Gaston (a man from Southern France). In English they just sound like names but is that the same in French?
François Leroux est excellentissime en Gaston. Par contre, la version française n'est pas la meilleure car je regrette que les chœurs masculins sonnent davantage comme des chœurs d'enfants que comme des voix d'hommes enivrés.
