UGH. IT'S BEEN HOURS AND I STILL HAVEN'T SETTLED ON HALF OF THEM. Curse France for the overuse of Louis, Jean, Antoine, etc. Using fun and unique names for all nine amis might be Hugolian, but it's certainly not historically appropriate.

I remember a while ago there was a discussion about names in the Cafe thread and someone came up with the genius idea of "Eugène François Javert", which is officially the name of my headcanon Javert now.Also I think Louis Antoine Enjolras is a good name for...obvious reasons.

*imagines that everyone in Les Mis who goes by their family name is actually named Louis*
