==Names in other languages==
In the original French, {{lang|fr|Dupond}} and {{lang|fr|Dupont}} are stereotypically prevalent surnames (akin to "[[Smith (surname)|Smith]]") and pronounced identically ({{IPA|fr|dypɔ̃|IPA}}). The different letters indicate their different moustache styles: D for {{lang|fr|droit}} ("straight"), T for {{lang|fr|troussée}} ("turned up"). Translators of the series in some languages have tried to find names for the pair that are common, and similar or identical in pronunciation.  They thus become:
