Trivia

  • โ—†Just like Welsh and Irish, his nickname is a direct reference to his heritage.
  • โ—†Ironically enough, his last name is Holland, a region divided in two provinces located in the Netherlands, another European country.
  • โ—†However, the surname Holland is of English/Scottish origin, not French (the French surname equivalent would be Hollande).
  • โ—†While it is stated that Irish met French on the boat over from Europe, French's accent seems to be a mixture of a southern and a Cajun. However, John remarks after killing him and Welsh, to Irish, "He didn't sound very French."
  • โ—†Given Leander's non-French surname, and no Francophone accent, it is possible that either Leander's backstory is a fabrication or that Leander has lived in the United States long enough to have lost his accent, and potentially changed his name, like from Hollande to Holland.
  • โ—†He is dressed similar to Irish, with the addition of a hat and a few other items.
  • โ—†Surprisingly, French can be disarmed, and even shot non-fatally. If disarmed, he will scream something along the lines of "I'm going to cut you like a pig, you son of a bitch!" but will not chase the player. He can, however, attempt to throw a punch at the player if they get close.
  • โ—†French seems to keep his revolver tucked at front of his pants rather than in the holster. The same goes for Irish.
  • โ—†Before completing "A Frenchman, a Welshman and an Irishman", Holland can be seen standing inside the Armadillo saloon. Strangely, the player is able to walk straight through him.
