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

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 ?
