Hérisson kinda sounds like oursin, I wonder if it evolved from it. (The word not the animal)

Sea urchin: oursin (“small bear” kinda)
Porcupine: Porc-épic (epic pork!) which sounds like porc et pics (pork and spikes)

Oh right, the image was talking about hedgehogs and not porcupine so the hérisson (probably from hérissé?) and not the porc-épic!
