I always thought it was an English name. You mean, it is not? Speaking of names, downtown Sherbrooke has only a handful of street with French names. One one them is Dufferin St, pronounced the "right" way (since it is of English origin). I knew that the Terrasse Dufferin in Quebec City was pronounced the French way, but I was suprised to hear it pronounced the same way in Gatineau as well. I found it surprising given the context of Gatineau, which is more bilingual than Sherbrooke, very close to Ontario.
