In Chauny, a son named Albert Uderzo was born in 1925 but died of pneumonia at the age of 8 months. The Uderzos decided to name their next son in honor of the deceased brother, and Uderzo was registered as Alberto Aleandro Uderzo. The fact that his name, intended to just be "Albert" like that of his deceased brother, has been registered as the Italian "Alberto" is because the responsible government official misunderstood Silvio Uderzo's heavy Italian accent.
