The combination French first name with German last name is
particularly common in Luxemburg. As a matter of fact, you could
easily have presented yourself as a Luxemburger.
All the French stuff you describe (I don't like camembert; I quite
like Brie and Port-Salut, though; I adore croissant, and I don't mind
a baguette from time to time) is quite common here, too. As a matter
of fact, I wonder if France really needs to be close in order to have
those thins in the supermarkets.
