Help[Surname] Valjean
I know that this is French, it's from Les Miserables. Victor Hugo had a habit of making up names, but any ideas what it could mean?

Val means 'vale, valley' and Jean is 'John'. There are many placenames in France that have this kind of structure but Valjean itself is a fictitious name.
