Yes. With the U German vowel ( I think you speak German right? ) instead of the ü. (and if you take away the S because we do not pronounce it in French)

It's just that in French, we have both names and they are quite different.

Like Luc Economides is not LUKE but Lük
It's always interesting which sounds overlap in languages coming from different language families, while languages in the same branch of a language family have often lost the sounds.

(Also interesting - W being called double U in English, double vé in French, and in German it has its own name (kind of similar to the English v (though not quite), with the German v being pronounced differently than the English one)
 
The Swiss team is wonderful! He's rocking that sleeveless NASCAR fantasy--just like something out of Tiger Beat my nephew used to collect in the late '80s. Love the sound effects and the exhilarating ending pose. Yet another young European team with a bright future!
