I'm confused

Apparently it's news to a lot of you that Viviane, the Lady of the Lake, raised Lancelot. Why did you think his name was Lancelot du Lac?

(This is a serious question, btw; if La Dame du Lac didn't raise him, why is his name Lancelot of the Lake?)

Wpuldn't that make rather a lot of Significant Lakes? Then again, myths and legends.

Not really...I come from Canada which is a) gigantic and therefore b) filled with lakes. Even if we just count Really Big Lakes there's the five major lakes in the south, the Great Slave Lake, Great Bear Lake, etc etc.

LOTSALAKES?

Yeah, that'd do it.

Sir Lotsalakes is not appearing in this legend.
