ArchivesMoliere
Moliere is often considered the French vresion of Shakespear.
In one of his plays appears the characters Argan and Cleante, both are male.
Cleante has an accent on the e, agu (i know that spelt wrong).
I was wondering the meanings, and thinking that it be cool to have a thing set up for names use by Moliere like that of Shakespeare, i know its lot of work, jsut an idea

Hi Silver,
Argan looks like a variation of the Breton name Argantael / Arc’hantael which means "silver, shining" + "generous".
There's a Latin name "Cleanthas" which looks a little like Cléante, but I don't know the meaning...
