Desiree D'Allure's name is a play on words, with both parts of her name hinting at Monterey's attraction to her. Desiree is a play on "desire" while D'Allure is a play on "allure." While her name sounds "French" since she is from Paris, her last name is actually a false cognate. Allure is a word in French, but doesn't have the same meaning as it does in English.
