That’s funny, i was going to agree with you that he certainly was famous enough to have his street name… then i thought about it and i must say i’m now more persuaded than ever that he is not really famous in france not even by this low threshold, because in my n=1 sample, i’ve never seen a rue lafayette or avenue lafayette of my life!
