French name?

[Anne Fisher]

Hello folks,

I'm translating Platonov's "Anti-Sexus" and am wondering how best to
transliterate the second name in the company name Беркман, Шотлуа и Сн.
(Berkman, Shotlua i Sn).

My one distant semester of college French, which I'm assuming is the
language of origin of the name "Shotlua," doesn't make me feel confident
about my transliteration - would the best transliteration be "Chatlois?" I
googled that and didn't find any person with a similar name to whom
Platonov may have been referring... so any leads on possible referents
would also be gladly received.

Thanks,

Annie
