heh....like Lucia di Lammermoor the Opera?

Lammermoor is the location in the Scottish lands where the Opera takes place. Coincidentally it becomes her last name because she is married to a high ranking lord who murders her in a drunken rage.

A hilly region in Scotland, Lammermuirs, is the setting for Sir Walter Scott's "The Bride of Lammermoor", which became Donizetti's "Lucia di Lammermoor".

Are you trying to say "L'amour" (le amoor) in French? If you are, it means love.
