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?)

But! But! Okay, I officially have no idea wtf is going on with the English version of Arthuriana.

And I have no idea wtf French Arthuriana is doing! We can boggle together. xD

While reading your post about Viviane I was so confused because I wasn't familiar with that name... but she seems to be closest to the character I know as Nyneve, who is A lady of a Lake, sort of, but not the same as The lady of the Lake. Um. xD

Nope, because I'm right and you're wrong. :P

Yeah, as far as I know Viviane/Nimue are the same person. There are several Lakes? Tell me more!
