La Hire - Jack of hearts

Étienne de Vignolles , called La Hire , was a French military commander during the Hundred Years' War. One explanation for his nickname of La Hire would be that the English had nicknamed him "the Hire-God" . Alternatively, his name may simply come from the French "hedgehog" ("hérisson") because he had a prickly disposition.
