Sylvie Nicolas: Bonjour. Je m'appelle Sylvie Nicolas. Ce que j'aime le plus, à propos de mon nom de famille, c'est que c'est aussi un prénom de garçon.

Chaque fois que je visite une classe, il y a presque toujours un enfant qui vient me voir pour me dire, "Hey, moi aussi, je m'appelle Nicolas," et chaque fois je sens à quel point ces garçons qui s'appellent Nicolas sont heureux que leur prénom soit aussi mon nom de famille.

Hello. My name is Sylvie Nicolas. I am very attached to my family name because it is also a boy's name.

Most of the time when I visit a classroom to introduce my work and talk about my books, a boy will come to me and say, "I am also named Nicolas, you know," and every time I feel how happy he is that we both share the same name.
