Cochonfucius (孔八戒) has two uncles. One is
Confucius (孔子), a teacher full of wisdom, and one is
Pigsy (猪八戒),
a man who looks like a pig and has not attained perfection yet.
Cochonfucius is somewhere in between.
His Chinese name is
Kong Bajie, where "Kong" means "Confucius" and "Bajie" means "Pigsy". His adventures are also published in
French. When in a playful mood, he uses
Jean-Baptiste Berthelin as a pseudonym.
