I'm sure I'm being stupid, but every voice except "alba" I recognize from Les Miserables; is there a character I'm forgetting?

Václav from Kyutai here. Yes the original naming scheme was from Les Miserables, glad you noticed! We just stuck to Alba because that's the real name of the voice actor that provided the voice sample to us (see https://huggingface.co/kyutai/tts-voices), the other ones are either from pre-existing datasets or given anonymously.
