RE: Patchou
Since it's his creation, Patchou "automatically owns" the copyrights to the name "Patchou"; so you can't copy it (use it to your benefit) without express authorization.
(That's theoretical, however. If you register a trademark in your country named Patchou it's very likely that, until you are sued by Patchou and he demonstrates that he's been using that name for long with these and those purposes, you'll be able to use the name without any significant problem -- that doesn't make it right, of course).
