Maine is quite close to New Brunswick - there are a lot of French speaking people up that way.I don't feel like starting a whole new thread about this, but are French last names very common in the US? I can't think of many American celebrities who have French last names.
But SK uses them from time to time, mostly with an English first name: Andy Dufresne (Shawshank Redemption), Gordie Lachance and Teddy Duchamp (The Body) and Eduard Delacroix (The Green Mile).
Or is it just his way of thinking of 'exotic sounding' names?
