But I do recognise Vichy! Because we have a sub-type of mineral water in Sweden that is named after Vichy, “Vichyvatten”. Wikipedia tells me the original was from a spring near Vichy, hence the name.

Probably. In Swedish many forms of Carbon share the same word “Kol”. It is the word for the element Carbon, but also the fuel Coal. Carbon brushes are called kolborstar “Carbon/Coal brushes”.
