For those named Kevin thinking of going to France...

Just have people call you the K-man.

Great article, thanks for sharing.

France is better than the USA on so many things, including this -- our 'Karen' situation is cartoonish by comparison.

Just read it-Hilarious! Thanks for that.
Given time, I bet Kevin is popular in France yet again.

Erm... Don't rethink vacation plans because of that 😆. I guess your comment was in jest, but i just want to make sure!
This Kevin thing is a thing but it is entirely about class. Many people associate the name Kevin, a name which peaked in 1990-1991 in France, with less privileged backgrounds compared to people with more traditional French names. As a foreign tourist, you are not part of the French class systems and thus not affected.

Hi Balso,

Yes, it was totally in jest. J'aime la France! I do think that things like the Académie Française and the protectionist stance towards their own language that many French have can baffle foreigners though.
