A lot of people have made audio posts showing how to pronounce the names of the main characters in Les Mis, Les Amis, etc. I decided to make one for the names that weren’t covered but are still likely to come up in fic or discussion.
French pronunciations (normal and syllabic) are followed by suggested anglicizations. Here’s:
1) Myriel
2) Baptistine
3) Magloire
4) Petit-Gervais
5) Fauchelevent
6) Champmathieu
7) Tholomyès
8) Bamatabois
9) Patron-Minette
10) Babet
11) Gueulemer
12) Claquesous
13) Montparnasse
14) Brujon
15) Gavroche
16) Gillenormand
Note: translations are approximate, as I’m not a native French speaker.
