Dr Moreau is the title character of [[H. G. Wells]]'s novel {{wi|The Island of Doctor Moreau}}. His first name was never given in the original book, but {{wi|The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen}} called him [[w:c:lxg:Alphonse Moreau|"Alphonse"]], which was also used in ''[[The Beasthouse (short story)|The Beasthouse]]''. Despite "Alphonse" being a [[French]] name, in ''[[Character Assassin (comic story)|Character Assassin]]'' he calls the [[Phantom of the Opera]] "Frenchman" as an insult, suggesting he is not himself French.
