Meaning and background
The story behind Champagne
Champagne takes its name from a region of France whose wine has a legally protected geographical designation. The word does not simply mean bubbles or celebration, even though it is strongly associated with festive occasions in modern English. As a name it supplies a particular French place-and-wine reference, not a personality prediction. The familiar spelling also differs considerably from its two-syllable pronunciation in English.
