In fact, the name Devialet derives from a fairly obscure 18th-century French writer, De Vialet, who was a friend of Denis Diderot and was involved in the great Encyclopedie project published by Diderot and D'Alembert.

The company chose the name because of the association with enlightenment and truth. And because it's French. And because it sounds good.

I am pretty sure that the name was printed DeVialet when the amp was first announced.

Yes, that would make sense. If so, I think they were wise to move to a lower-case v. Looks less fussy.
