Re: Strange names in France.
From what I've found, Permal is not Breton but a (sur)name used in La Réunion: "Surtout porté à la Réunion, c'est un nom indien évoquant le dieu Vishnu ou son incarnation Krishna."
I'm not sure why it was used in France in the very early 1900s (and only very rarely so, I may add), but then again so was Soupaya.
