La Pucelle: Tactics - Names

Names

Most of the names of characters and places in the game are in French. La Pucelle (or La Pucelle d'Orléans) was a nickname given to Joan of Arc which means The Maid. Some names are religion related like Prier (verb: to pray) and Croix (Cross) while others are either related to food like Salade (Salad), Chocolat (Chocolate), Homard (lobster) and Mount Champignon (mushroom) or are completely unrelated to one another like Papillon (butterfly), Noir (black), Allouette (lark), Eclair (lightning) and Culotte (pant) but more likely a reference to calotte (Toque) because he is always wearing one.

Famous quotes containing the word names:

    I do not see why, since America and her autumn woods have been discovered, our leaves should not compete with the precious stones in giving names to colors; and, indeed, I believe that in course of time the names of some of our trees and shrubs, as well as flowers, will get into our popular chromatic nomenclature.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Shut out that stealing moon,
    She wears too much the guise she wore
    Before our lutes were strewn
    With years-deep dust, and names we read
    On a white stone were hewn.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Almanacked, their names live; they
    Have slipped their names, and stand at ease,
    Or gallop for what must be joy,
    Philip Larkin (1922–1985)
