What nationality comes to mind when you see this name?

Unread post by Chimera »

First one that comes to mind, this is a personal social experiment I'm doing to see what pops up in peoples minds if they heard this name and it was the legit name of a real life person like say, a friend of your friend whom you've never heard of or met before. Or an employer flipping through resume's.

"Paudette"

French-speaking, so any country where French is the native language.
the "-ette" diminutive/feminine suffix is typical of Gallic languages.

A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.
