Tips

usage

Likely a Mandarin transliteration of 'Lestat' (the vampire in Anne Rice's 《吸血鬼编年史》 / The Vampire Chronicles) or a similar Western name like 'Leister'. 勒 lè handles 'le-', 士 shì handles '-st-', 达 dá handles '-tat / -ter'. Other Lestat renderings exist (莱斯特, 莱斯塔特), so 勒士达 is one of several competing transliterations.
