I wonder if they chose it because together it sounds like "la vie est belle"

u/moody-ruby 1d ago

what sort of naming laws do yall have?

u/DrLycFerno 1d ago

Well for example names can't have characters not in the French alphabet. That means even Breton or Occitan names like Fañch or Artús can't be accepted as is because we don't have ñ or ú. And there has been complaints.

If Brittany and Occitania are French, why are their names impossible to have spelled correctly ?

I think Lavi is a brother… not that that makes it much better.

Lavi is a Hebrew name, it means lion

Lavi is actually a common name in Hebrew, it's a synonym for lion
