      One of the more hilarious things you learn while doing research to write a random fanfic about a dress up princess mobile game is that Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de La Fayette, was freakin NINETEEN YEARS OLD when we made him a Major General.

      The other hilarious thing you learn is that his name was Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier. His title of course being Marquis de La Fayette, and then Americans were like "fuck that noise" and called him Lafayette

      It must have been terribly gauche for the French aristocracy to give a baby fewer than four first names. Marie Antoinette was doomed to disappoint the people of France, having the bare minimum of first names: Maria Antonia Josepha Johanna

      On the other hand Louis XVI was merely Louis-Auguste which made it inevitable the French people would rise up and overthrow him.

      Replying to @NeolithicSheep

      Shep I came across a Bonaparte in a medieval Welsh philological journal today from the late 19th c, and his published title was HIH Louis Lucien Bonaparte. I was like...are you joking.
